Knots & Physics
more books like this
by
Louis H. Kauffman
This book is an introduction to knot and link invariants as generalized amplitudes (vacuum-vacuum amplitudes) for a quasi-physical process. The demands of the knot theory, coupled with a quantum statistical framework, create a context that naturally includes a wide range of interrelated topics in topology and mathematical physics. The author takes ...

Temperley-Lieb Recoupling Theory and Invariants of 3-Manifolds
more books like this
by
Louis H Kauffman, Louis H Kaufmann, Sosteness Lins
This book offers a self-contained account of the 3-manifold invariants arising from the original Jones polynomial. These are the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev and the Turaev-Viro invariants. Starting from the Kauffman bracket model for the Jones polynomial and the diagrammatic Temperley-Lieb algebra, higher-order polynomial invariants of links are ...

more books like this
by
Cameron Gordon (Editor), Vaughan F R Jones (Editor), Louis H Kauffman (Editor)
There were many developments in the area of knot theory in the 1990s. They include Thurston's work on geometric structures on 3-manifolds (such as knot complements), Gordon-Luecke's work on surgeries on knots, Jones' work on invariants of links in S3, and advances in the theory of invariants of 3-manifolds based on Jones- and Vassiliev-type ...

Hypercomplex Iterations: Distance Estima
more books like this
by
Yumei Dang, Louis H Kauffman
This work is based on the authors' research on rendering images of higher dimensional fractals by a distance estimation technique. It is self-contained, giving a careful treatment of both the known techniques and the authors' new methods. The distance estimation technique was originally applied to Julia sets and the Mandelbrot set in the complex ...

Hopf Algebras and Generalizations: Ams Special Session on Hopf Algebras at the Crossroads of Algebra, Category Theory, and Topology, October 23-24, 2004, Evanston, Illinois
more books like this
by
Louis H Kauffman
Hopf algebras have proved to be very interesting structures with deep connections to various areas of mathematics, particularly through quantum groups. Indeed, the study of Hopf algebras, their representations, their generalizations, and the categories related to all these objects has an interdisciplinary nature. It finds methods, relationships, ...

Lectures on Topological Fluid Mechanics
more books like this
by
Mitchell A Berger, Louis H Kauffman, Boris Khesin
Helmholtz's seminal paper on vortex motion (1858) marks the beginning of what is now called topological fluid mechanics. After 150 years of work, the field has grown considerably. In the last several decades unexpected developments have given topological fluid mechanics new impetus, benefiting from the impressive progress in knot theory and ...
