Lovasz invoked topological colouring bounds in proving Kneser\u27s Conjecture. Subsequently, numerous applications of topological techniques to graph colouring problems have arisen. However, even today, little is known about how to construct a graph with a particular topological colouring bound, or about the structure of such graphs. The aim of this thesis is to remedy this deficit. First, we will perform a review of topological techniques used in bounding the chromatic number and discuss constructing graphs with particular topological colouring bounds. Then we will derive necessary conditions for a graph to attain a particular topological colouring bound, and use these conditions to analyze the structure of such graphs. In particular, we p...
