 Award#0306062 - Problems in Low Dimensional Topology
The investigator's research is focussed on understanding two important phenomena in low dimensional topology: first, understanding exactly what is accomplished through the use of stabilization in relating two equivalent closed braids; and second, understanding when there is the occurence of topologically essential surfaces inside a 3-dimensional manifold, i.e.
This phemomenon of knottest does not occur in any lower or higher dimensional space---the advantage of a 5-dimensional jewelry box is that a collection of strands of pearls can never be tangled.
The 3-dimensional space in which we live is unique in its ability to retain information about the "knottest" of a collection of closed loops (think of a collection of tangled strands of pearls inside a jewelry box).

 RIMS Project 2001
Apart from the inherent attractiveness of low-dimensional topology as a field of particular mathematical complexity, it is also an enticing study because of its `visibility', that is, one can actually view and feel low-dimensional objects such as 3-dimensional manifolds and knotted circles.
For most of the twentieth century, we have studied low dimensional topology using both the direct, geometrical `cut-and-paste' methods, and the more abstract techniques of Algebraic Topology.
As a result, techniques from low-dimensional topology are now used in other fields including not only number theory, representation theory and integrable systems, but also theoretical physics.

 Mathematics Topology
Geometric topology is often split into low dimensional (4 or less) and high dimensional.
There were enormous advances in high dimensional topology during the 60’s including the solution of the high dimensional Poincare conjecture, and a good understanding of how differentiability enters into the picture, for example through the existence of exotic smooth structures on spheres.

 CRM: Thematic Programme 2001-2002
Recently there have been important break throughs in the study of the topology of manifolds and related topics on group actions, especially in the area of 3- and 4- dimensional manifolds with new imput from the Seiberg-Witten theory and symplectic topology.
The workshop will focus on recent developments in automorphisms of affine spaces and related algebraic varieties with simple topology, in particular exotic affine spaces (algebraic varieties homeomorphic to an affine space).
The theory of infinite groups was revolutionized by an infusion of geometric ideas from geometry and topology.

 Low Dimensional Topology - The KirbyFest
There will be an electronic volume which links to papers in low dimensional topology associated with the KirbyFest.
Current research areas on which the conference will focus include gauge theory and smooth structures on 4-manifolds, symplectic and contact topology, topology of 4-manifolds, quantum topology and perturbative invariants of knots and 3-manifolds, hyperbolic geometry in dimension 3, and combinatorial methods in knot theory and 3-dimensional topology.
The Scope: Recent years have seen spectacular new developments in the study of three and four dimensional manifolds, and in knot theory.

 Clay Mathematics Institute
These courses will concentrate on recent activity at the crossroads of mathematical disciplines around low-dimensional topology: the theory of holomorphic curves, gauge theory, knot theory, smooth four-manifold topology, and contact geometry.
Designed for graduate students and mathematicians within five years of their Ph.D., the program is organized around the related themes of Floer Homology, Gauge Theory, and Low Dimensional Topology.
If there is not complete agreement between the results of one's work and experiment, one should not allow oneself to be too discouraged, because the discrepancy may well be due to minor features that are not properly taken into account and that will get cleared up with further development of the theory.
