In these lecture notes we discuss a body of work in which Morse theory is used to construct various homology and cohomology operations. In the classical setting of algebraic topology this is done by constructing a moduli space of graph flows, using homotopy theoretic methods to construct a virtual fundamental class, an…

Springer varieties appear in both geometric representation theory and knot theory. Motivated by knot theory and categorification Khovanov provides a topological construction of (n/2,n/2)(n/2, n/2) Springer varieties. We extend Khovanov's construction to all two-row Springer varieties. Using the combinatorial and diagrammatic …

This paper focuses on a topological version on the Strominger-Yau-Zaslow mirror symmetry conjecture. Roughly put, the SYZ conjecture suggests that mirror pairs of Calabi-Yau manifolds are related by the existence of dual special Lagrangian torus fibrations. We explore this conjecture without reference to the special La…

To every oriented link LL, we associate a topologically defined biquandle B^L\widehat{\mathcal{B}}_{L}, which we call the topological biquandle of LL. The construction of B^L\widehat{\mathcal{B}}_{L} is similar to the topological description of the fundamental quandle given by Matveev. We find a presentation of the top…

We prove that quantum mechanically the path-integral in this gauge localizes on associative submanifolds. Moreover on M×S1M\times S^1 the theory naturally reduces…

Some generalizations and variations of the Fintushel-Stern rim surgery are known to produce smoothly knotted surfaces. We show that if the fundamental groups of their complements are cyclic, then these surfaces are topologically unknotted. Using a twist-spinning construction from high-dimensional knot theory, we constr…
