Dedication
Without the following, this paper would have never seen the light, hence it is my greatest pleasure to mention
the following helpers, not tutors, in ascending Alphabetic order:
1. Google: main research buddy, mainly with ’books’ and ’scholar’.
2.Numdam: for the help with LateX’s syntax understanding and comprehension by the share of tex
papers, besides offering academic work in English and French.
3.https://www.mathgenealogy.org/id.phpid=310110Simon Jubert: for recommending ”Overleaf.com”, a thanks might be not be enough, as without him, all effort, progress, and work would have
gone in vein, with the wind, ”Une grande merci à vous”.
4. Slmath: for offering resources, both physical and online, in addition to offering a set of references
and links, and their welcoming hospitality. This page would be intentionally left blank if we would not wish
to inform about that.

Introduction to Low-Dimension Topology and Knots
Ahmad Lutfi
January 1, 2025
Abstract
In this paper, we examine knots from a beginner’s perspective, along with related terminology which may
aid the researcher if understood from a different angle, in addition to the Monodromy, Euler characteristic
function, Fundamental groups which are touched upon, focusing on knots their types and homologies,
and polynomials. besides that a short appendix, finally we conclude with future recommendations.
Introduction

Introduction
ancientGreece
Low-dimensional topology is a dense subject, with topics yet to be explored, however, its prominent part
is about the knots. Excluding the Babylonian culture, the first knot known to man can possibly be the
Gordian knot.
The knot’s name is still mysterious and subject to research. Having suffered hard times, and relying only
on an Oracle’s prophecy, Lydians started searching for their savior king, finding him in Midas as a slave, d
and at Midas, they crowned their king, who led a fierce battle in Gordain , slaying and cutting open the
Gordian’s knot, ending the Phylogian’s reign knot, becoming a hero (and subsequently a hero’s journey to
rule the world, most of.
Note this legend resembles Alexander The Great, whom this legend is allegedly written, with also some
mystery. In addition, the Gordian Knot emphasizes the prominent position of Kybele and Zeus, between
religion and legend.passing then throughout the renaissance and Leonardo da Vinci, passing to the modern
world. A more recently,[?] have studied The fourth and sixth Da Vinci-Druer knot, There is a hexagonal
lattice core that is invariant (Under the reflection of the points set p).
In result, they were able to generate two new infinities, where each Link can have an infinite, number of
knots, leading to WW2 and the beginning of maturity of Knots.

Adding figures and tables
This section has two sub-sections.
4.1
Adding figures
If you include figures or tables, use reference keys (e.g. Figure 1), to create an unambiguous reference from
the text to each figure and table, e.g. to Table 6.
1 See
http://journal.dhbenelux.org/submission/preparing-the-final-version-of-your-manuscript/
Figure 1: This is where the caption of the figure goes. Remember, figure captions go below the figure.
Table 1: Table caption. Captions for tables go above the table, unlike for figures.

Monodromy
a
Monodromy1 A Monadromy Representations can be used to build a commutative diagram out of 2 different homologies [?] [?] builds upon that by stating the Monodromy group can be either symmetric Sn or
Asymmetric (An) . Another application is Monodromy covers of the Riemann sphere by the generic Riemann
surface.
Monodoromy, Cohomology, and -1 [?] extends their study of
Cohomology milnor have extensively studied Cohomologies stating that the Monodromy operator can act
on some cohomology group of the Milnor fiber at some point of the hypersurface
f − 1(0)Cn
.
T he monodromy can be used an unipotent pseudoreflection , and that at the local monodromy is ( -1 )
times a unipotent pseudoreflection . In the next section , we will give examples in characteristic two, where
we do not know any way to avoid [?]
The Monodromy theorem could imply a family of smooth , complex , projective manifolds over the
punctured disk , after a finite base change the monodromy can be made unipotent . [?] Another use of
monodromy is to build a commutative of diagrams [?]

Euler Characteristic
a ccording to [?] Euler characteristic is a classical, well-understood topological invariant that has appeared
in numerous applications, including in the context of random fields. E.g. Let X be a CW complex of
dimension k, then an Euler characteristic is given by the formula:
sumki=1 (−1)i .ni
sumki=1 (−1)i .ni (2)
sumki=1 (−1)i .ni
when a source term θ is introduced in the equation:
1
∂g(t)
= − (g(t)) + θ,
∂t
β
(3)
Theorem 1. Let X be a compact KÃhler manifold endowed with a smooth closed (1, 1)-form θ satisfying
(??). Then
lim g (β) (t) = P (g0 + tθ) (:= g(t))
β→∞
in the weak topology of currents, where P is a (non-linear) projection operator onto the space of positive
currents. Moreover, the metrics g (β) (t) are uniformly bounded on any fixed time interval [0, T ].
degenerate on large portions of X, the support is defined as:
X(t) := (dVg(t) )
(4)
g(t) = g0 + tθ
on X(t),
in the almost everywhere sense. As a consequence, typically the volume form dVg(t) has a sharp discontinuity
over the boundary of X(t) (the function g(t)n /ω n is typically discontinuous at some point on the boundary
of the contact set X(t)) showing that the limiting (degenerate) L∞ -metrics g(t) are not continuous and hence
0
-convergence in the previous theorem cannot hold, in general.

it could also provides a stable summary of a space/dataset over an entire range of parameter choices/scales.[?]
totalEnergy Plus in recent paper it has been proven that the Euler characteristic χ(G) of G is equal to
the total energy:
(5)
χ(G) = Σx,y g(x, y) = E(G)
furthermore
F urthermore, χ(G)equaltothenumberof positiveminusthenumberof negativeeigenvaluesof L
χ(G) = numP ositiveEigenvalues(L) − numN egativeEigenvalues(L)
but how can we make use of it? This depends primarily on dimensionality. In low dimensional space,
Euler Characteristic is made use of in Persistent Homology (PH), which is a powerful tool in topological data
analysis, can track and analyze the shape of the data.[?]
description:What (it does): also in the , Low Dimensional Space the use of Persistent Homology,
which provides a stable summary of a space/dataset over an entire range of parameter choices/scales.
2.Higher-dimensional Space Use topological invariant parameter spaces: clearly enables more discriminative summaries.
Motivation The goal of is to this paper illustrates that Euler surfaces can provide insight into the data
over multidimensional parameter spaces.

Presentations
For presentations,In particular, we can have either one of (3) different specifications either: 1. Heegaard 2.

The existence of characteristic submanifolds provides us with a splitting result similar to those discussed
for homotopy equivalences between surfaces.
7.1
Homotopy Equivalences in Manifolds
done after the classification of Haken 3-manifolds, we begin studying the Homotopy Equivalences between
the manifolds, which are similar to those between surfaces.
If the characteristic submanifolds exist, they provide us with the splitting result.
homotopy equivalences between surfaces In order to describe this splitting result, let M and M’ be Haken
3-manifolds (closed or not!) and denote by V and V’ the characteristic submanifolds in M and M’, Why
study Pseudo-Anosov as diffeomorphisms are part of homotopy equivalences. (Thus it is practical to
study them).
Plus, the split up a homotopy equivalences is: f ′ : M → M ′ which is morphed into homotopy equivalences
between l-bundles and Seifert fiber spaces. Since V and V’ consist of those, then they also are diffeomorphisms
between simple 3-manifolds.
The homotopy equivalences are between Seifert fiber spaces. As far as homotopy equivalences or in
particular, between, I-bundlesand Seifert fibrespaces. where I-bundles and Seifert fibre spaces and (@V—¢GM) consist of essential annuli and tori.
Further, the equivalence can be deformed so that the fiber structure is invariant.
Note that between surfaces (closed or not) we can reduce the study of Homotopy Equivalences to that
one of Pseudo-Anosov diffeomorphisms.
(Thus, studying Pseudo-Anosov diffeomorphisms is a good start).

The goal is to find an isotopy, for a given Seifert Surface, which is regarded as a disc with bands, so that the
bands could cross over, where: 1. Plus (+): denotes one side of the surface, and 2. Minus(-) refers to the
other.
The modification shown in Figure 2 produces an orientable surface obtainable from the indicated knot
projection by shading.
8.2.3
Seifert Matrix
Since any non-singular Seifert matrix for K is 2hx2h, where 2h = deg(A), it follows from Witt’s cancellation
theorem, over any local ring in which 2 is invertible,
which forms A + AT
Where non-singular Seifert matrices A are all congruent.
8.2.4
Goeritz matrix
This matrix coincides with A + AT for some Seifert matrix A associated with F.
Hence, for any Seifert matrix A of K, A + AT is in the equivalence class of Goeritz matrices of K.

writhe) number, i.e. the signed sum of all crossings of the diagram with the convention
3.T3:

Contact Structures as Symplectic Cones
A nother angle of contact structures on M is to look at the Symplectic Cones in the cotangent fiber of
M , because F is a contact structure on M if and only if the cone in T ∗ M is of the algebraic 1-forms. Thus,
one should study contact structures along with Symplectic structures, As these (2) structure types, occur
together in analysis and geometry problems.

complex compact manifold of dimension 2n + 2. (Please note this value has significance in Number Theory ).
F urthermore, odd dimensional manifolds are interesting because any odd-dimensional manifold M (with

2. Immersed manifold: One allows the manifold to cross itself. 3.Hyper-surface: Is a sub-manifold and
is one dimension less than the Ambient manifold.
Sub-manifolds are useful, as each has a natural tangent space to our current space under study.
There is yet an open question to discuss: Can a hyper-surface contain a few sub-manifolds , Is a surface
a manifold, or at can it be at least
But what makes a surface different from a manifold?) but can a surface be a manifold?

quasi-equivalent, or non-equivalent to a manifold? Similarity-wise, are sub-manifolds self-similar to a hypersurface?

LCM
T here exists a Least Common Multiple (lcm) for the crossed product KG or KHp , Where G is a group,
and Hp can be built from it,as the latter forms disjoint subsets of the former group. Where Hp ≡ G.
Atiyah’s Suggestion
L
et us construct Hp from G
I.e. Hp ≡ G, thus the lcm can be f orallAinMn (KG) as:
(46)
L · lcm(G)dimG (kerA) ∈ Z
Additionally, lcm can be expressed in Terms of the Crossed Product KG:
(47)
L · lcm(G)dimG (kerA) ∈ Z
That is for ∀A ∈ Mn (KG).
Strong Atiyah
M eanwhile, evidence suggests the Hp implies the Strong Atiyah Conjecture for G. (Since Hp are disjoint
subgroups of G).
Hence, there exists a Least Common Multiple (lcm) on Hp or on the crossed product KHp , in general,
satisfying the condition: f orallAinMn (KHp ), with a general form:
(48)
L · lcm(Hp )dimHp (kerA) ∈ Z
Thus, the LCM is under the condition of: f orallAinMn (KHp ).

Conclusion
W e have reviewed popular knots, and some relevant theory behind them in building enough intuition and
basic understanding of the subject matter.
I t turns out that one of the great uses of knots is performing a surgery , with a goal to somehow remove
them; This would require further work, as a separate research topic on its own.
I n the end , another possible line of research might also be done, by discovering characters and their
representations that belong to representation theory primarily.
U nraveling unknown territories might also be interesting to explore in the hope of finding connections to
relevant geometric constructs in the near future.
I n both cases, it is interesting to know more about knots. Furthermore, the fundamental group has a
decent amount of available literature, that might be a separate topic which is worthy to explore and write
about in the near future.
F inally, finding out about the meaning of knots is fine, however,on one hand it might be good to explain
further theory, explaining propositions corollaries, and theorems in the pure field. On the other hand, it
would also be a worthwhile pursuit, worthy to further develop,unraveling that which is hidden, shedding
some light upon uncovering hidden connections and relationships with other fields in the applied field. hence,
whether applied or theoretical, knots are interesting to study, learn about, and hence provide more value,
while strengthening one’s understanding in return.
