Knot Theory: Second Edition
Autor Vassily Olegovich Manturoven Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 mar 2018
Knot Theory, Second Edition is notable not only for its expert presentation of knot theory’s state of the art but also for its accessibility. It is valuable as a profes-sional reference and will serve equally well as a text for a course on knot theory.

Recenzii
Praise for the first edition
This book is highly recommended for all students and researchers in knot theory, and to those in the sciences and mathematics who would like to get a flavor of this very active field.”

Descriere
Over the last fifteen years, the face of knot theory has changed due to various new theories and invariants coming from physics, topology, combinatorics and algebra. It suffices to mention the great progress in knot homology theory (Khovanov homology and Ozsvath-Szabo Heegaard-Floer homology), the A-polynomial which give rise to strong invariants of knots and 3-manifolds, in particular, many new unknot detectors. New to the Second Edition; discusses Heegaard-Floer homology theory and A-polynomial of classical links. Updates throughout the book.
