Topological surgery in the small and in the large
Stathis Antoniou, Louis H. Kauffman, Sofia Lambropoulou
We directly connect topological changes that can occur in mathematical three-space via surgery, with black hole formation, the formation of wormholes and new generalizations of the…
Topological surgery in cosmic phenomena
Stathis Antoniou, Louis H. Kauffman, Sofia Lambropoulou
We connect topological changes that can occur in -space via surgery, with black hole formation, the formation of wormholes and new generalizations of these phenomena, including…
Rail knotoids
Dimitrios Kodokostas, Sofia Lambropoulou
We work on the notions of rail arcs and rail isotopy in , and we introduce the notions of rail knotoid diagrams and their equivalence. Our main result is that two rai…
Diagrammatic representations of knots and links as closed braids
Sofia Lambropoulou
This is an expository article on diagrammatic representations of knots and links in various settings via braids.
A survey on knotoids, braidoids and their applications
Neslihan Gügümcü, Louis H. Kauffman, Sofia Lambropoulou
This paper is a survey on the theory of knotoids and braidoids. Knotoids are open ended knot diagrams in surfaces and braidoids are geometric objects analogous to classical braids,…
Black holes and topological surgery
Stathis Antoniou, Louis H. Kauffman, Sofia Lambropoulou
We directly connect topological changes that can occur in mathematical three-space via surgery, with black hole formation, the formation of wormholes and new generalizations of the…
