Legendrian knots II
Wednesday January 27, 2010
11:00AM - 12:00PM
Speakers:
Lenhard Ng
Abstract:
In this lecture, we will explore applications of various knot homologies
to Legendrian and transverse knots. These include the transverse invariant in knot Floer homology due to Ozsvath-Szabo-Thurston and related transverse invariants in Khovanov and Khovanov-Rozansky homology, as well as bounds on Thurston-Bennequin and self-linking numbers from knot homologies.
