چکیده
We give a diagrammatic definition of Uq(sl2) when q is not a root of unity, including the Hopf algebra structure and relationship with the Temperley-Lieb category. Quantum groups, knot diagrams, skein theory.

Quandle coloring and cocycle invariants of composite knots and abelian extensions.
Quandle colorings and cocycle invariants are studied for composite knots, and applied to chirality and abelian extensions. The square and granny knots, for example, can be distinguished by quandle colorings, so that a trefoil and its mirror can be distinguished by quandle coloring of composite knots. We investigate this and related phenomena. Quandle cocycle invariants are studied in relation t...
متن کاملQuandle colorings of knots and applications.
We present a set of 26 finite quandles that distinguish (up to reversal and mirror image) by number of colorings, all of the 2977 prime oriented knots with up to 12 crossings. We also show that 1058 of these knots can be distinguished from their mirror images by the number of colorings by quandles from a certain set of 23 finite quandles. We study the colorings of these 2977 knots by all of the...
متن کاملGenus Ranges of Chord Diagrams.
A chord diagram consists of a circle, called the backbone, with line segments, called chords, whose endpoints are attached to distinct points on the circle. The genus of a chord diagram is the genus of the orientable surface obtained by thickening the backbone to an annulus and attaching bands to the inner boundary circle at the ends of each chord. Variations of this construction are considered...
متن کاملThe Erdös-Nagy theorem and its ramifications
Given a simple polygon in the plane, a ip is de ned as follows: consider the convex hull of the polygon. If there are no pockets do not perform a ip. If there are pockets then re ect one pocket across its line of support of the polygon to obtain a new simple polygon. In 1934 Paul Erd}os conjectured that every simple polygon will become convex after a nite number of ips. The result was rst prove...
متن کاملIleoileal Knot as a Content of Obstructed Hernia: What Are the Odds?
An obstructed inguinal hernia is a common surgical emergency, which presents with a variety of contents like the small intestine, omentum, and colon. Intestinal knotting is a rare entity encountered in surgical practice; it occurs when one coil of intestine wraps around the other and eventually leads to complications such as intestinal obstruction, ischemia, and gangrene. Both conditions are co...
