Knot Concordance and Higher-Order Blanchfield Duality
Tim D. Cochran, Shelly Harvey, Constance Leidy
In 1997, T. Cochran, K. Orr, and P. Teichner defined a filtration {F_n} of the classical knot concordance group C. The filtration is important because of its strong connection to t…
Knot concordance and Blanchfield duality
Tim D. Cochran, Shelly Harvey, Constance Leidy
We introduce a new technique for showing classical knots and links are not slice. As one application we resolve a long-standing question as to whether certain natural families of k…
L^2-Betti numbers of plane algebraic curves
Stefan Friedl, Constance Leidy, Laurentiu Maxim
In [DJL07] it was shown that if A is an affine hyperplane arrangement in C^n, then at most one of the L^2-Betti numbers of its complement is non--zero. We will prove an analogous s…
