We introduce swept-area pseudometrics on ropelength-filtered spaces of knot representatives. For a knot type \(K\) and a ropelength level \(\Lambda\), admissible isotopies are required to pass through curves of thickness at least one and…

This paper develops a form of finite knot theory as a diagrammatic sequel to the ideal-stratum and deformation-persistence framework for knot types. Thick representatives in bounded ropelength sublevel spaces are studied through the finite…

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,…

We study scale-invariant geometric quantities associated with embedded closed curves in Euclidean three-space, with an emphasis on their behavior under optimization within a fixed knot type. Given a Euclidean-invariant and scale-covariant…

We study a family of scale-invariant $p$-densities of knot types in $R^3$, defined as the ratio of length to an $L^p$-type spread of pairwise distances along a curve. The first point of the paper is that the unconstrained theory has a…

Let $\Lambda$ be a local truncated path algebra over an algebraically closed field $K$, i.e., $\Lambda$ is a quotient of a path algebra $KQ$ by the paths of length $L+1$, where $Q$ is the quiver with a single vertex and a finite number of…

We construct knot invariants categorifying the quantum knot variants for all representations of quantum groups. We show that these invariants coincide with previous invariants defined by Khovanov for sl_2 and sl_3 and by Mazorchuk-Stroppel…

This article is Part I in a series of three papers devoted to determining the minimal complexity of scales in the inner model $K(\mathbb{R})$. Here, in Part I, we shall complete our development of a fine structure theory for $K(\mathbb{R})$…

Knots are commonly found in molecular chains such as DNA and proteins, and they have been considered to be useful models for structural analysis of these molecules. One interested quantity is the minimum number of monomers necessary to…

The conormal lift of a link $K$ in $\R^3$ is a Legendrian submanifold $\Lambda_K$ in the unit cotangent bundle $U^* \R^3$ of $\R^3$ with contact structure equal to the kernel of the Liouville form. Knot contact homology, a topological link…

Non-Hermitian systems host band degeneracies that are fundamentally distinct from those in Hermitian systems, most notably exceptional points (EPs) where both eigenvalues and eigenvectors coalesce. In three dimensional (3D) non-Hermitian…

Let k be an algebraically closed field, and let \Lambda\ be an algebra of dihedral type of polynomial growth as classified by Erdmann and Skowro\'{n}ski. We describe all finitely generated \Lambda-modules V whose stable endomorphism rings…

The ropelength of a knot or link is the minimal number of inches of 1-inch-thick rope that it takes to tie it. The relationship of this measurement to knot and link invariants has been studied by various authors. We give the first results…

We study the natural inclusion of the space of Legendrian embeddings in $(\mathbb{S}^3,\xi_{\operatorname{std}})$ into the space of smooth embeddings from a homotopical viewpoint. T. K\'alm\'an posed in [Kal] the open question of whether…

Let $K$ be a connected compact semisimple group and $V_\lambda$ be an irreducible unitary representation with highest weight $\lambda$. We study the momentum map $\mu:\mathbb P(V_\lambda)\to\mathfrak k^*$. The intersection $\mu(\mathbb…

In this paper, we investigate three geometrical invariants of knots, the height, the trunk and the representativity. First, we give a conterexample for the conjecture which states that the height is additive under connected sum of knots. We…

Given a finitely generated group G, the set Hom(G,SL_2 C) inherits the structure of an algebraic variety R(G)called the "representation variety" of G. This algebraic variety is an invariant of G. Let G_{pt}=< a, b; a^p= b^t>, where p, t are…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, and $R=k[x_1, \ldots, x_d]$ with $d \geq 3$ be a polynomial ring in $d$ variables. Let $\m=(x_1, \ldots, x_d)$ be the homogeneous maximal ideal of $R$. Let $\mathcal{K}$ be the kernel of the…

Given an affine algebra $R=P/I$, where $P=K[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ is a polynomial ring over a field $K$ and $I$ is an ideal in $P$, we study re-embeddings of the affine scheme ${\rm Spec}(R)$, i.e., presentations $R \cong P'/I'$ such that $P'$ is…

The ropelength problem asks for the minimum-length configuration of a knotted diameter-one tube embedded in Euclidean three-space. The core curve of such a tube is called a tight knot, and its length is a knot invariant measuring…
