| - | Effectively, a smooth manifold would be given by providing //any// atlas. But then, due to the redundancy of some charts on small open sets, different atlases give rise to equivalent mathematical objects and so a smooth manifold is technically defined as the biggest and hence //unique// one amongst those objects. | + | Effectively, a smooth manifold would be given by providing //any// atlas.
