Knot theory is dealing with embedding of curves in manifolds of dimension 3. A knot is a single circle embedded in the affine space of dimension 3 as a smooth curve not crossing itself. Many knot invariants are known and can be used to distinguish knots.

Maslov index and Heegard Floer homology
Knowing that the maslov index is equal to the "expected" dimension of the moduli space of the disks is helpful too. For example in the figure on the right side of page 17, you can see that a holomorph …

Proof of the Reidemeister theorem
If you are willing to take a difficult theorem of Moise for granted (which proves equivalence of link isotopy in the smooth (tame) and PL category, in his "Affine Structures in 3 Manifolds VIII"), the …

Jones polynomial of tangles using Temperley-Lieb algbra?
The definition of the Jones polynomial of tangles (a la Reshetikhin and Turaev) uses the space of invariants for $U_q sl_2$ and R-matrices. It seems to me the same thing cane be done in terms of the T …

Understanding a program for computing Khovanov homology
I would like to understand how a computer program for computing Khovanov homology works. The particular program I have in mind is by John Baldwin: https://web.math.princeton.edu/~baldwinj/Kh.cpp
