Description
Summary:Knot Projections offers a comprehensive overview of the latest methods in the study of this branch of topology, based on current research inspired by Arnolds theory of plane curves, Viros quantization of the Arnold invariant, and Vassilievs theory of knots, among others. The presentation exploits the intuitiveness of knot projections to introduce the material to an audience without a prior background in topology, making the book suitable as a useful alternative to standard textbooks on the subject. However, the main aim is to serve as an introduction to an active research subject, and includes many open questions.
