• Book Details

Volume: 21997; 604 pp
MSC: Primary 57;

This is Part 1 of a two-part volume reflecting the proceedings of the 1993 Georgia International Topology Conference held at the University of Georgia during the month of August. The texts include research and expository articles and problem sets. The conference covered a wide variety of topics in geometric topology.

Features:

• Kirby's problem list, which contains a thorough description of the progress made on each of the problems and includes a very complete bibliography, makes the work useful for specialists and non-specialists who want to learn about the progress made in many areas of topology. This list may serve as a reference work for decades to come.
• Gabai's problem list, which focuses on foliations and laminations of 3-manifolds, collects for the first time in one paper definitions, results, and problems that may serve as a defining source in the subject area.

Titles in this series are copublished with International Press, Cambridge, MA.

Graduate students, research mathematicians, and physicists interested in manifolds and cell complexes.

This item is also available as part of a set:

• Chapters
• Polyhedral minimal surfaces, Heegaard splittings, and decision problems for 3-dimensional manifolds
• Surgery numbers of 3-manifolds: A hyperbolic example
• Non-hyperbolic manifolds obtained by Dehn surgery on hyperbolic knots
• Cyclic surgery and boundary slopes
• Relative Euler number and finite covers of graph manifolds
• Geometric invariants for 3-manifolds
• Link homotopy in simply connected 3-manifolds
• Homotopy, isotopy, and genuine laminations of 3-manifolds
• Non-associative tangles
• Power series expansions and invariants of links
• Introduction to spin TQFT
• Refined state-sum invariants of 3- and 4-manifolds
• A family of Möbius invariant 2-knot energies
• Invariants of fibred knots from moduli
• Symplectic forms on moduli spaces of flat connectionso n 2-manifolds
• Automorphisms of the $E_8$ four-manifold
• On the star-construction for topological 4-manifolds
• The problem of Lagrangian knots in four-manifolds
• Energy and capacities in symplectic topology
• Piecewise linear manifolds and Cerf theory
• Local homotopy properties of topological embeddings in codimension two
• $SL(n,{\bf Z})$ cannot act on small tori
• Morse homotopy and its quantization
• CAT(0) reflection manifolds
• On oriented bundle theories and applications
• On minimal coverings in the sense of Lusternik-Schnirelmann for spaces and manifolds
