topologist

/təpˈɑlədʒˌɪst/ noun

A mathematician who specializes in topology.

Word Origin Topologist is built from Greek topos 'place' and logos 'discourse, study', with -ist for the person. So it's 'one who studies place.' Topology is the mathematical study of shapes and spaces, literally 'place-discourse.' The same topos gives us topic (a place in argument), topography (place-writing), and utopia (no place). Logos gives us logic, biologist, geologist. The idea: a topologist talks about the properties of place that don't change when you stretch or bend.
