Section 3.4 Some Objectives and Videos
Objectives
- In what ways can we represent a knot?
- What limitations do those representations have?
- Can we remove those limitations and find a "best" representation?
- What are the "building blocks" of all knots?
Subsection 3.4.1 Prime Knots
Subsection 3.4.2 Numerical Invariants
Objectives
- What are some numerical invariants for knots?
- How well do these invariants represent their knots? What knot properties can they detect?
