That helps very little without a definition of "homeomorphic".

MathWorld helps: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Manifold.html

A fu'ivla might not be bad here, but I suspect that it wouldn't be hard
to build a lujvo if one built upon a from-scratch description of
topology mathematics in general.  A mathematical surface is probably
"sefta tarmi".  Locally Euclidian is something like "xutla diklo".
