Knot theory

SpeakerVassily Olegovich Manturov(Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology)

Time:2022年1月

LocationTencent Meeting             

               Room Number:614-9548-1864 

                 Password:372633

Abstract: 

Lecture1. 

Reidemeister moves. Colouring invariants, and the linking number.

2022/01/06 18:00-19:00

Abstract:

We will introduce diagrams of knots and links. We use the diagrams to build two invariants of links: Coloring invariant and the linking number.

 

Lecture2. 

The Kauffman bracket, the Jones polynomial.

2022/01/09 18:00-19:00

Abstract:

We will use Kauffman bracket to prove that Jones polynomial is a link invariant.We will compute some examples and prove the Kauffman-Murasugi-Thistlethwaite Theorem.

 

Lecture3.  

Fundamental group. The knot group.

2022/01/13 18:00-19:00

Abstract:

We will define a famous link invariant: the fundamental group of the knot complements. We will show that this group is not trivial if the knot is not trivial.

 

Lecture4. 

The knot Quandle is a complete knot invariant.

2022/01/16 18:00-19:00

Abstract:

Matveev and Joyce defined a knot invariant, the knot quandle.  This is a complete invariant. We can obtain many invariants from the knot quandle, for example, the knot group and coloring invariant.

 

Lecture5.  

The braid groups

2022/01/20 18:00-19:00

Abstract:

We define the braid group. The action of the braid group on Aut(F_{n}) is complete.We will also discuss Markov Theorem and Alexander Theorem.

 

Lecture6.  

The Alexander polynomial.

2022/01/23 18:00-19:00

Abstract:

We will introduce several ways to define the Alexander polynomial.

 

Lecture7.  

Vassiliev invariant

2022/01/27 18:00-19:00

Abstract:

We will introduce the Vassiliev invariant and prove that “polynomial” invariant are all come from the Vassiliev invariant.

 

Lecture8.  

Khovanov homology

2022/01/30 18:00-19:00

Abstract:

Khovanov homology is a categorification of the Jones polynomial, in the sense that its Euler characteristic is the Jones polynomial.
