Pseudogroups and the flavors of the topology of manifolds
Topologists study topological manifolds, differentiable manifolds and PL-manifolds (and some other flavors), with each class distinguished by the selection of a pseudogroup that restricts the transiti …

Mazur's unpublished manuscript on primes and knots?
The story of the analogy between knots and primes, which now has a literature, started with an unpublished note by Barry Mazur.
I'm not absolutely sure this is the one I mean, but in his paper, Analo …

Manifolds with rectifiable curves
To begin with, observe that the notion of a rectifiable curve makes sense in, say, a smooth or a PL-manifold but not in merely a topological manifold. Indeed if $f:[0,1]\rightarrow U\subset{\Bbb R}^n …

A certain kind of proof of the Hairy Ball Theorem
I'd just like to know if proofs of the Hairy Ball Theorem along the following lines are well-known or even somewhere in the literature.
From a given vector field $V_1$ on $S^2$, form another, $V_2$, b …

Knot diagrams, sets of moves and equivalence relations
Short version: Does anyone study equivalence classes generated by a given set of "moves" (in the sense of, but not limited to, Reidemeister moves) on the set of knot diagrams?
Yes, I understand that …
