The inclusion of the space of all knots of a prescribed writhe in a particular isotopy class into the space of all knots in that isotopy class is a weak homotopy equivalence.

A family of sequences produced by a non-homogeneous linear recurrence formula derived from the geometry of circles inscribed in lenses is introduced and studied. Mysterious ``underground'' sequences underlying them are discovered in this…
It is shown that any closed three-manifold M obtained by integral surgery on a knot in the three-sphere can always be constructed from integral surgeries on a 3-component link L with each component being an unknot in the three-sphere. It is…

A procedure of going from Heegaard diagrams to framed link diagrams is explained in this note.
Let K be a non-trivial knot in the 3-sphere with a lens space surgery and L(p,q) a lens space obtained by a Dehn surgery on K. We study a relationship between the order of the fundamental group of L(p,q) and the Seifert genus of K.

This paper was first written in 1990, but was never published. In it, the author presents a novel approach to the study of constant curvature spacetimes in 2+1 dimensions. A parameterization of flat 2+1-dimensional domains of dependence is…
This paper presents a novel framework for studying knotted and braided configurations of optical fields, moving beyond the conventional Hopfion solution based on the Hopf fibration. By employing the Seifert fibration, a preferred framing is…
This manuscript has been removed duo to incorrect contents.
This paper has been withdrawn by the author, since some results of the paper have been already obtained in [J.~Lewandowski, Class. Quantum Grav. 9 (1992), no. 10, L147--L151.]
This paper has been withdrawn, because its material has been revised and became part of paper math.GT/0010184
In this article, we apply slope detection techniques to study properties of toroidal $3$-manifolds obtained by performing Dehn surgeries on satellite knots in the context of the $L$-space conjecture. We show that if $K$ is an $L$-space knot…
In this paper, we study a special family of $(1,1)$ knots called constrained knots, which includes 2-bridge knots in the 3-sphere $S^3$ and simple knots in lens spaces. Constrained knots are parameterized by five integers and characterized…
This paper visualizes a knot reduction algorithm
By use of a variety of techniques (most based on constructions of quasipositive knots and links, some old and others new), many smooth 3-manifolds are realized as transverse intersections of complex surfaces in complex 3-space with strictly…
This set of notes re-proves known results on weighted automata (over a field, also known as multiplicity automata). The text offers a unified view on theorems and proofs that have appeared in the literature over decades and were written in…
We present new limits on cosmological parameters from the statistics of gravitational lensing, based on the recently revised knowledge of the luminosity function and internal dynamics of E/S0 galaxies that are essential in lensing…
We modify the definition of spherical knotoids to include a framing, in analogy to framed knots, and define a further modification that includes a secondary 'coframing' to obtain 'biframed' knotoids. We exhibit topological spaces whose…
