# Fields with least amount of geometry/topology?

Which fields are they? Maybe a ranking if you can give one.

The simplest field I can think of consists of one number 0. The next simplest consists of two numbers (0 and 1) using modulo 2 for addition. After this things get more complicated.

I had thought the question was about fields of work or professions! Veterinary medicine came to mind.

fields (non mathematical term) in maths.

As far as I know, Sally Field has a very minimal amount of geometry/topology in her work. I think there was a scene of her doing some algebra in an episode of Gidget.

A little bit more seriously, "Abstract Algebra" as a general field is usually distinguished form Topology/geometry. Other forms of mathematics typically include some algebra and some topology.

But still it's very related in a way since one can define geometry in terms of algebraic concepts. What is something that is so far from topology and geometry that there is not the slightest connection?
