Download or read book Primes and Knots written by Toshitake Kohno and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals systematically with connections between algebraic number theory and low-dimensional topology. Of particular note are various inspiring interactions between number theory and low-dimensional topology discussed in most papers in this volume. For example, quite interesting are the use of arithmetic methods in knot theory and the use of topological methods in Galois theory. Also, expository papers in both number theory and topology included in the volume can help a wide group of readers to understand both fields as well as the interesting analogies and relations that bring them together.

Download or read book Gauss Diagram Invariants for Knots and Links written by T. Fiedler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gauss diagram invariants are isotopy invariants of oriented knots in- manifolds which are the product of a (not necessarily orientable) surface with an oriented line. The invariants are defined in a combinatorial way using knot diagrams, and they take values in free abelian groups generated by the first homology group of the surface or by the set of free homotopy classes of loops in the surface. There are three main results: 1. The construction of invariants of finite type for arbitrary knots in non orientable 3-manifolds. These invariants can distinguish homotopic knots with homeomorphic complements. 2. Specific invariants of degree 3 for knots in the solid torus. These invariants cannot be generalized for knots in handlebodies of higher genus, in contrast to invariants coming from the theory of skein modules. 2 3. We introduce a special class of knots called global knots, in F x lR and we construct new isotopy invariants, called T-invariants, for global knots. Some T-invariants (but not all !) are of finite type but they cannot be extracted from the generalized Kontsevich integral, which is consequently not the universal invariant of finite type for the restricted class of global knots. We prove that T-invariants separate all global knots of a certain type. 3 As a corollary we prove that certain links in 5 are not invertible without making any use of the link group! Introduction and announcement This work is an introduction into the world of Gauss diagram invariants.

Download or read book The Branched Cyclic Coverings of 2 Bridge Knots and Links written by Jerome Minkus and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1982 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper a family of closed oriented 3 dimensional manifolds {[italic]M[subscript italic]n([italic]k,[italic]h)} is constructed by pasting together pairs of regions on the boundary of a 3 ball. The manifold [italic]M[subscript italic]n([italic]k,[italic]h) is a generalization of the lens space [italic]L([italic]n,1) and is closely related to the 2 bridge knot or link of type ([italic]k,[italic]h). While the work is basically geometrical, examination of [lowercase Greek]Pi1([italic]M[subscript italic]n([italic]k,[italic]h)) leads naturally to the study of "cyclic" presentations of groups. Abelianizing these presentations gives rise to a formula for the Alexander polynomials of 2 bridge knots and to a description of [italic]H1([italic]M[subscript italic]n([italic]k,[italic]h), [italic]Z) by means of circulant matrices whose entries are the coefficients of these polynomials.
Download or read book Polynomial One cocycles For Knots And Closed Braids written by Thomas Fiedler and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2019-08-27 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, knot theory deals with diagrams of knots and the search of invariants of diagrams which are invariant under the well known Reidemeister moves. This book goes one step beyond: it gives a method to construct invariants for one parameter famillies of diagrams and which are invariant under 'higher' Reidemeister moves. Luckily, knots in 3-space, often called classical knots, can be transformed into knots in the solid torus without loss of information. It turns out that knots in the solid torus have a particular rich topological moduli space. It contains many 'canonical' loops to which the invariants for one parameter families can be applied, in order to get a new sort of invariants for classical knots.

Book excerpt: This proceedings volume presents a diverse collection of high-quality, state-of-the-art research and survey articles written by top experts in low-dimensional topology and its applications. The focal topics include the wide range of historical and contemporary invariants of knots and links and related topics such as three- and four-dimensional manifolds, braids, virtual knot theory, quantum invariants, braids, skein modules and knot algebras, link homology, quandles and their homology; hyperbolic knots and geometric structures of three-dimensional manifolds; the mechanism of topological surgery in physical processes, knots in Nature in the sense of physical knots with applications to polymers, DNA enzyme mechanisms, and protein structure and function. The contents is based on contributions presented at the International Conference on Knots, Low-Dimensional Topology and Applications – Knots in Hellas 2016, which was held at the International Olympic Academy in Greece in July 2016.

Download or read book Physical Knots Knotting Linking and Folding Geometric Objects in mathbb R 3 written by Jorge Alberto Calvo and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2002 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The properties of knotted and linked configurations in space have long been of interest to physicists and mathematicians. More recently and more widely, they have become important to biologists, chemists, computer scientists, and engineers. The depth and breadth of their applications are widely appreciated. Nevertheless, fundamental and challenging questions remain to be answered. Based on a Special Session at the AMS Sectional Meeting in Las Vegas (NV) in April 2001, this volumediscusses critical questions and introduces new ideas that will stimulate multi-disciplinary applications. Some of the papers are primarily theoretical; others are experimental. Some are purely mathematical; others deal with applications of mathematics to theoretical computer science, engineering,physics, biology, or chemistry. Connections are made between classical knot theory and the physical world of macromolecules, such as DNA, geometric linkages, rope, and even cooked spaghetti. This book introduces the world of physical knot theory in all its manifestations and points the way for new research. It is suitable for a diverse audience of mathematicians, computer scientists, engineers, biologists, chemists, and physicists.
