Classical Knot Theory [PDF]

open access: yesSymmetry, 2012
This paper is a very brief introduction to knot theory. It describes knot coloring by quandles, the fundamental group of a knot complement, and handle-decompositions of knot complements.

Knot theory and error-correcting codes. [PDF]

open access: yesDes Codes Cryptogr
Abstract This paper builds a novel bridge between algebraic coding theory and mathematical knot theory, with applications in both directions. We give methods to construct error-correcting codes starting from the colorings of a knot, describing through a series of results how the properties of the knot translate into code parameters.

Virtual Knot Theory [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Combinatorics, 1999
Virtual knot theory is a generalization (discovered by the author in 1996) of knot theory to the study of all oriented Gauss codes. (Classical knot theory is a study of planar Gauss codes.) Graph theory studies non-planar graphs via graphical diagrams with virtual crossings.

Circuit complexity of knot states in Chern-Simons theory [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
We compute an upper bound on the circuit complexity of quantum states in 3d Chern-Simons theory corresponding to certain classes of knots. Specifically, we deal with states in the torus Hilbert space of Chern-Simons that are the knot complements on the 3-

Knot data analysis using multiscale Gauss link integral. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2023
Significance Knot theory is a pivotal mathematical branch and has garnered tremendous research interest for over 200 years. Despite its broad applications, it has been limited to qualitative analysis.

INTRODUCTION TO VIRTUAL KNOT THEORY [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Knot Theory and Its Ramifications, 2011
This paper is an introduction to virtual knot theory and an exposition of new ideas and constructions, including the parity bracket polynomial, the arrow polynomial, the parity arrow polynomial and categorifications of the arrow polynomial.

Deep learning the hyperbolic volume of a knot

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2019
An important conjecture in knot theory relates the large-N, double scaling limit of the colored Jones polynomial JK,N(q) of a knot K to the hyperbolic volume of the knot complement, Vol(K).
