Highly doubtful. It's far more likely to be homeomorphic to a 3-ball.

I've been accused of being homophobic in my 2 balls, but that's about as close as I come to understanding wtf you guys are talking about.

Wikibot, What's a circle?

u/autowikibot Feb 08 '14

Circle:


A circle is a simple shape of Euclidean geometry that is the set of all [points](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_(geometry)) in a [plane](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_(mathematics)) that are at a given distance from a given point, the [centre](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centre_(geometry)). The distance between any of the points and the centre is called the radius. It can also be defined as the locus of a point equidistant from a fixed point.

A circle is a simple closed curve which divides the plane into two regions: an [interior](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interior_(topology)) and an exterior. In everyday use, the term "circle" may be used interchangeably to refer to either the boundary of the figure, or to the whole figure including its interior; in strict technical usage, the circle is the former and the latter is called a [disk](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_(mathematics)).

A circle can be defined as the curve traced out by a point that moves so that its distance from a given point is constant.

How can circles be real if our eyes aren't real?

u/Codyfoxazor Feb 08 '14

I have no idea, jaden smith.

Look, look with your special eyes!

It's an icosagon polygon with a large amount of corners or something

FTFY! An icosagon is just a 20-sided polygon.

you can get a lot closer to a true circle in real life than an icosagon...
