VIRTUAL KNOTS
World Scientific Publishing Company 2012; US$ 218.00The book is the first systematic research completely devoted to a comprehensive study of virtual knots and classical knots as its integral part. The book is self-contained and contains up-to-date exposition of the key aspects of virtual (and classical) knot theory.Virtual knots were discovered by Louis Kauffman in 1996. When virtual knot theory arose,... more...
Algebraic Invariants of Links
World Scientific Publishing Company 2012; US$ 129.00This book serves as a reference on links and on the invariants derived via algebraic topology from covering spaces of link exteriors. It emphasizes the features of the multicomponent case not normally considered by knot-theorists, such as longitudes, the homological complexity of many-variable Laurent polynomial rings, the fact that links are not usually... more...
The Mathematics of Knots
Springer 2010; US$ 119.99The present volume grew out of the Heidelberg Knot Theory Semester, organized by the editors in winter 2008/09 at Heidelberg University. The contributed papers bring the reader up to date on the currently most actively pursued areas of mathematical knot theory and its applications in mathematical physics and cell biology. Both original research and... more...
Braid Groups
Springer 2008; US$ 49.99In this well-written presentation, motivated by numerous examples and problems, the authors introduce the basic theory of braid groups, highlighting several definitions that show their equivalence; this is followed by a treatment of the relationship between braids, knots and links. Important results then treat the linearity and orderability of the... more...
Intelligence Of Low Dimensional Topology 2006
World Scientific Publishing Company 2007; US$ 161.00This volume gathers the contributions from the international conference "Intelligence of Low Dimensional Topology 2006," which took place in Hiroshima in 2006. The aim of this volume is to promote research in low dimensional topology with the focus on knot theory and related topics. The papers include comprehensive reviews and some latest... more...
Physical And Numerical Models In Knot Theory
World Scientific Publishing Company 2005; US$ 165.00The physical properties of knotted and linked configurations in space have long been of interest to mathematicians. More recently, these properties have become significant to biologists, physicists, and engineers among others. Their depth of importance and breadth of application are now widely appreciated and valuable progress continues to be made... more...
Handbook of Knot Theory
Elsevier Science 2005; US$ 180.00This book is a survey of current topics in the mathematical theory of knots. For a mathematician, a knot is a closed loop in 3-dimensional space: imagine knotting an extension cord and then closing it up by inserting its plug into its outlet. Knot theory is of central importance in pure and applied mathematics, as it stands at a crossroads of topology,... more...
Knot Theory
CRC Press 2004; US$ 119.95Knot theory plays an importanat role in mathematics and this volume presents the main concepts of modern knot theory and applications together with full proofs so that it is accessible for undergraduates and is a useful reference for postgraduates, more...
Knots
De Gruyter 2002; US$ 133.00This book is an introduction to classical knot theory. Topics covered include: different constructions of knots, knot diagrams, knot groups, fibred knots, characterisation of torus knots, prime decomposition of knots, cyclic coverings and Alexander polynomials and modules together with the free differential calculus, braids, branched coverings and... more...
The Shape of Space
Marcel Dekker Inc 2001; US$ 34.95This lighthearted text surveys the basic geometry of two- and three-dimensional spaces - stretching students' minds as they learn to visualize new possibilities for the shape of our universe. more...
