Study filling links in 3-manifolds to understand their topological properties.

Affirmative proof that rank 3 3-manifolds have filling links.

In the study of homology cobordisms, knot concordance and link concordance, the following technical problem arises frequently: let $π$ be a group and let $M \to N$ be a homomorphism between projective $\Z[π]$-modules such that $\Z_p \otimes_{\Z[π]} M\to \Z_p \otimes_{\Z[π]} N$ is injective; for which other right $\Z[π]…

Introduces injective category number for continuous maps, linking classical and contemporary research.

It was recently proved by several authors that ribbon concordances induce injective maps in knot Floer homology, Khovanov homology, and the Heegaard Floer homology of the branched double cover. We give a simple proof of a similar statement in a more general setting, which includes knot Floer homology, Khovanov-Rozansky…

We show that a ribbon concordance between two links induces an injective map on Khovanov homology.

This paper connects noise injection to Bayesian inference for neural networks, improving model uncertainty.

Study of spaces of pure braids and string links using diagrams and integrals.

The theory of frames normal for general connections on differentiable bundles is developed. Links with the existing theory of frames normal for covariant derivative operators (linear connections) in vector bundles are revealed. The existence of bundle coordinates normal at a given point and/or along injective horizonta…

Study of equivariant ribbon concordance using Khovanov homology.

We show that many 3-manifold groups have no nonabelian surface subgroups. For example, any link of an isolated complex surface singularity has this property. In fact, we determine the exact class of closed graph-manifolds which have no immersed pi_1-injective surface of negative Euler characteristic. We also determine …

Let $\barγ$ be a link in a Seifert fibered space $M$ over a hyperbolic $2$-orbifolds $\mathcal O$ that projects injectively to a filling multicurve of closed geodesics $γ$ in $\mathcal O.$ We prove that the complement $M_{\barγ}$ of $\barγ$ in $M$ admits a hyperbolic structure of finite volume and give combinatorial bo…

Study the spaces of Legendrian knots and links with maximal Thurston-Bennequin invariant.

Let P be a knot in a solid torus, K a knot in 3-space and P(K) the satellite knot of K with pattern P. This defines an operator on the set of knot types and induces a satellite operator P:C--> C on the set of smooth concordance classes of knots. There has been considerable interest in whether certain such functions are…

We provide an alternative proof that Koschorke's $κ$-invariant is injective on the set of link homotopy classes of $n$-component homotopy Brunnian links $BLM(n)$. The existing proof (by Koschorke \cite{Koschorke97}) is based on the Pontryagin--Thom theory of framed cobordisms, whereas ours is closer in spirit to techni…

Each pointed topological space has an associated $π$-module, obtained from action of its first homotopy group on its second homotopy group. For the $3$-ball with a trivial link with $n$-components removed from its interior, its $π$-module $\mathcal{M}_n$ is of free type. In this paper we give an injection of the (exten…

Study shows how Khovanov homology behaves for split links and cobordisms.

There is a well known injective homomorphism $φ:{\mathcal {B}}_n \rightarrow {\rm Aut}(F_n)$ from the classical braid group ${\mathcal {B}}_n$ into the automorphism group of the free group $F_n$, first described by Artin. This homomorphism induces an action of ${\mathcal {B}}_n$ on $F_n$ that can be recovered by consid…

Proof of injection from double shuffle to Kashiwara-Vergne Lie algebra.

The primary objects of study in the ``knot theory of complex plane curves'' are C-links: links (or knots) cut out of a 3-sphere in the complex plane by complex plane transverse and totally tangential. Transverse C-links are naturally oriented. There are many natural classes of examples: links of singularities; links at…

Let $L^2$ be the Lebesgue space of square-integrable functions on the unit circle. We show that the injectivity problem for Toeplitz operators is linked to the existence of geodesics in the Grassmann manifold of $L^2$. We also investigate this connection in the context of restricted Grassmann manifolds associated to $p…

The study proves nearly Frobenius algebras over certain domains are Frobenius.

We prove that the expectation value of the index function i(x) over a probability space of injective function f on any finite simple graph G=(V,E) is equal to the curvature K(x) at the vertex x. This result complements and links Gauss-Bonnet sum K(x) = chi(G) and Poincare-Hopf sum i(x) = chi(G) which both hold for arbi…

A fibered concordance of knots, introduced by Harer, is a concordance between fibered knots that is well-behaved with respect to the fibrations. We consider semi-fibered concordance of two component ordered links $L=J \sqcup K$ with $J$ fibered. These are concordances that restrict to fibered concordances on the first …

The rank $n$ swapping algebra is the Poisson algebra defined on the ordered pairs of points on a circle using the linking numbers, where a subspace of $(\mathbb{K}^n \times \mathbb{K}^{n*})^r/\operatorname{GL}(n,\mathbb{K})$ is its geometric mode. In this paper, we find an injective Poisson homomorphism from the Poisso…

New theory classifies knotted spheres in 4D space.

The thickness, NIR(K) of a knot or link K is defined to be the radius of the largest solid tube one can put around the curve without any self intersections, which is also known as the normal injectivity radius of K. For C^{1,1} curves K, NIR(K)=min{(1/2)DCSC(K),(1/(supkappa(K))))}, where kappa(K) is the generalized cur…

The {\em rank $n$ swapping algebra} is a Poisson algebra defined on the set of ordered pairs of points of the circle using linking numbers, whose geometric model is given by a certain subspace of $(\mathbb{K}^n \times \mathbb{K}^{n*})^r/\operatorname{GL}(n,\mathbb{K})$. For any ideal triangulation of $D_k$---a disk wit…

The Reshetikhin-Turaev invariant, Turaev's TQFT, and many related constructions rely on the encoding of certain tangles (n-string links, or ribbon n-handles) as n-forms on the coend of a ribbon category. We introduce the monoidal category of Hopf diagrams, and describe a universal encoding of ribbon string links as Hop…
