The Topology of Spaces of Knots

چکیده

We present two models for the space of knots which have endpoints at fixed boundary points in a manifold with boundary, one model defined as an inverse limit of mapping spaces and another which is cosimplicial. These models are homotopy equivalent to the corresponding knot spaces when the dimension of the ambient manifold is greater than three, and there are spectral sequences with identifiable E terms which converge to their cohomology and homotopy groups. The combinatorics of the spectral sequences is comparable to combinatorics which arises in finite-type invariant theory.

Topology of Two-connected Graphs and Homology of Spaces of Knots

We propose a new method of computing cohomology groups of spaces of knots in Rn, n ≥ 3, based on the topology of configuration spaces and twoconnected graphs, and calculate all such classes of order ≤ 3. As a byproduct we define the higher indices, which invariants of knots in R define at arbitrary singular knots. More generally, for any finite-order cohomology class of the space of knots we de...

The Topology of Spaces of Knots: Cosimplicial Models

We present two models for the space of knots which have endpoints at fixed boundary points in a manifold with boundary, one model defined as an inverse limit of spaces of maps between configuration spaces and another which is cosimplicial. These models build on the calculus of isotopy functors and are weakly homotopy equivalent to knot spaces when the ambient dimension is greater than three. Th...

Paracompactness on supra topological spaces

In this article, we present the concept of supra paracompact spaces and study its basic properties. We elucidate its relationship with supra compact spaces and prove that the property of being a supra paracompact space is weakly hereditary and topological properties. Also, we provide some examples to show some results concerning paracompactness on topology are invalid on supra topology. Finally...

Weak hyper semi-quantales and weak hypervalued topological spaces

The purpose of this paper is to construct a weak hyper semi-quantale as a generalization of the concept of semi-quantale and used it as an appropriate hyperlattice-theoretic basis to formulate new lattice-valued topological theories. Based on such weak hyper semi-quantale, we aim to construct the notion of a weak hypervalued-topology as a generalized form of the so-called lattice-valued t...

On Generalized Injective Spaces in Generalized Topologies

In this paper, we first present a new type of the concept of open sets by expressing some properties of arbitrary mappings on a power set. With the generalization of the closure spaces in categorical topology, we introduce the generalized topological spaces and the concept of generalized continuity and become familiar with weak and strong structures for generalized topological spaces. Then, int...
