What are the key concepts of 4D Knot Theory and Reidermeister Moves?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on 4D Knot Theory and the generalization of Reidermeister moves. Participants seek free resources, including papers and illustrations, to better understand these concepts. Recommendations include searching for abstracts online and utilizing local university libraries for access to relevant literature. Additionally, the use of video resources, such as YouTube, is suggested for visual representations of 4D knots.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of basic knot theory concepts
  • Familiarity with Reidermeister moves
  • Knowledge of 4D geometry
  • Ability to access academic papers and resources
NEXT STEPS
  • Research free academic papers on 4D Knot Theory
  • Explore video resources on YouTube related to 4D knots
  • Study the mathematical implications of Reidermeister moves in higher dimensions
  • Investigate online forums or communities focused on knot theory
USEFUL FOR

Mathematicians, students of topology, and anyone interested in advanced knot theory and its applications in higher dimensions.

I need a free description with illustrations on 4D knots theory,
especially the 4D generalization of Reidermeister moves and
the movie represantation.

Where can I find a freely available paper?

Search for abstracts on the internet then photocopy the content from your local university library?
 
Please, can anyone give me a usable answer? Thanks

Which part is not usable? Are you unable to find references/abstracts on the internet? Or do you not have access to a suitable university library?

I suspect you'll need a website to find movies, and there are surely free ones. Tried Youtube?
 
Please tell me some title of papers which introduce 4D knot theory and Reidermeister moves are intruduced as well.
