The zero-sphere #
The unit sphere of a one-dimensional real normed space consists of a point p on it and its
antipode -p. It is therefore finite and discrete, and its path components are its two points:
the component of -p is the only path component other than that of p.
These are the inputs for the degree-zero computation of the reduced homology of spheres, which is the base case of the induction on dimension through the suspension isomorphism.
