48 results for Fary-Milnor theorem

We consider the class of curves of finite total curvature, as introduced by Milnor. This is a natural class for variational problems and geometric knot theory, and since it includes both smooth and polygonal curves, its study shows us connections between discrete and differential geometry. To explore these ideas, we co…

The convex hull of a set K in space consists of points which are, in a certain sense, "surrounded" by K. When K is a closed curve, we define its higher hulls, consisting of points which are "multiply surrounded" by the curve. Our main theorem shows that if a curve is knotted then it has a nonempty second hull. This pro…

Knot theory is the study of isotopy classes of embeddings of the circle S1S^1 into a 3-manifold, specifically R3R^3. The Fáry-Milnor Theorem says that any curve in R3R^3 of total curvature less than 4π is unknotted. More generally, a (finite) graph consists of a finite number of edges and vertices. Given a topologica…

In LM, we proved a family version of the famous Witten rigidity theorems and several family vanishing theorems for elliptic genera. In this paper, we gerenalize our theorems LM in two directions. First we establish a family rigidity theorem for the Dirac operator on loop space twisted by general positive energy loop gr…

The paper explains the topological origin of the distinction between incidence theorems over division rings and fields.

problem Understanding the distinction between incidence theorems over division rings and fields.
method Extending the surface-graph approach to noncommutative settings, the paper analyzes the topological properties of graphs embedded on surfaces of different genera.
result Theorems associated with graphs on the sphere hold over any division ring, while those on surfaces of positive genus typically hold only if the ground ring is a field.
