Signatures of cosmic topology in the polarised cosmic microwave background

Cosmic topology is difficult to constrain due to the lack of observable phenomena which are affected by this property of the Universe. The phenomenon with the most potential to reveal cosmic topology is the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The task of constraining topology with the CMB is challeng...
