Knot Theory, not a Theory
Chun-Chung Hsieh (Academia Sinica)
Abstract:
As there are many incarnations of knot theory---for example quantum field theory, Hecke algebra, representation theory...., in this talk I will first review what Jones' revolution is, and then talk about our viewpoint from the theory of linking invariant and its relationship with HOMFLY polynomials.
