Squeezed knots are those knots that appear as slices of genus-minimizing oriented smooth cobordisms between positive and negative torus knots. We show that this class of knots is large and discuss how to obstruct squeezedness. The most…
A compendium for outsiders.
This proceedings contribution summarizes recent investigations of Lorentz violation in matter-gravity couplings.
We discuss the possibility of the existence of finite algorithms that may give distinct knot classes. In particular we present two attempts for such algorithms which seem promising, one based on knot projections on a plane, the other on…
The study of knots and links from a probabilistic viewpoint provides insight into the behavior of "typical" knots, and opens avenues for new constructions of knots and other topological objects with interesting properties. The knotting of…
The goal of this paper is to discuss the possibility of finding an algorithm that can give all distinct knots up to a desired complexity. Two such algorithms are presented, one based on projections on a plane, the other on closed…
A review article on perturbation theory
This paper is an introduction to the theory of virtual knots and links and it gives a list of unsolved problems in this subject.
This article provides an overview of relative strengths of polynomial invariants of knots and links, such as the Alexander, Jones, Homflypt, and Kaufman two-variable polynomial, Khovanov homology, factorizability of the polynomials, and…
This paper is a very brief introduction to knot theory. It describes knot coloring by quandles, the fundamental group of a knot complement, and handle-decompositions of knot complements.
In this report, I will start by first giving a brief introduction on knots to build some intuition before beginning the more rigorous review in the Literature Review section. There, I will define knot equivalence, the Jones polynomial…
We classify Legendrian rational unknots with tight complements in the lens spaces L(p,1) up to coarse equivalence. As an example of the general case, this classification is also worked out for L(5,2). The knots are described explicitly in a…
Knot theory is the Mathematical study of knots. In this paper we have studied the Composition of two knots. Knot theory belongs to Mathematical field of Topology, where the topological concepts such as topological spaces, homeomorphisms,…
This talk offers some comments and perspectives on Lorentz and CPT violation.
We introduced concept of meander knots, 2-component meander links and multi-component meander links and derived different families of meander knots and links from open meanders with at most 16 crossings. We also defined semi-meander knots…

This is a survey paper on algorithms for solving problems in 3-dimensional topology. In particular, it discusses Haken's approach to the recognition of the unknot, and recent variations.
We give a complete coarse classification of Legendrian and transverse torus knots in any contact structure on $S^3$.
This is an introductory article on high dimensional knots for the beginners. High dimensional knot theory is an exciting field. It is a field of knot theory, which is one of topology and is connected with many ones. In this article we use…
We define cylinder knots as billiard knots in a cylinder. We present a necessary condition for cylinder knots: after dividing cylinder knots by possible rotational symmetries we obtain ribbon knots. We obtain an upper bound for the number…
