2 invariants in knot theory

  • Abstract: If I draw two knots on the chalk-board, can you tell me if one can be moved around to look like the other? If it cannot, could you prove it? I will show you two gadgets that will do this in certain cases, and also breifly discuss the idea of a complete invariant.
