A topological method for detecting the new emergence of magnetic flux using SOHO/MDI magnetograms of the full solar disk is proposed. This method uses the number of pixels in the image that can be distinguished from a specified value to within a predetermined threshold (the number of disconnected components). We study more than ten very powerful active regions (ARs) with very high flare activity and show that the number of disconnected components increases directly before the development of a series of M and X flares, or accompanies this process. This behaviour is evident not only when there is an explicit emergence of a new flux and a series of fast flares, such as in AR 9236 (November 2000), but also in groups with many non-stationary processes developing along a neutral line of the large-scale magnetic field. We also discuss the possibility of using the obtained results for flare prediction.
