Does this knot invariant distinguish trefoil chiralities?

I'm very curious where this came up. In any case, the answer to the first question is yes, it does distinguish these trefoils; you found the minimal representatives. Let $a_0,\dots,a_{N-1}$ be the r …

HOMFLY and homology; also superalgebras

Lots of good answers above, but the one that seems to be missing is what belongs in the third column for unspecialized HOMFLY. (As Geordie Williamson points out, Khovanov and Rozansky wrote two relat …

Approximation of topological dynamical systems?

In general, dynamical properties of dynamical systems are often quite unstable. The Mandelbrot set makes one nice parameter: the base equation $z \mapsto z^2 + c$ is varies continuously with respect t …

pseudo-Anosov maps on surfaces with boundary

First off, the mapping class group of a surface with boundary is generally taken to mean the group of diffeomorphisms that fix the boundary, up to isotopies fixing the boundary. In this context, a De …

Connectedness of the complements of the connected subsets

(B) does not hold for topological graphs. Let $X$ be the 1-skeleton of a tetrahedron, and let $S$ be a cycle of 4 edges. Then $X \setminus S$ is not connected.
