Title Knot theoretic views on homotopy groups 
Field Geometry
SpeakersJie Wu
AffiliationNational University of Singapore
AbstractIn this talk, we will discuss some fundamental connections
between knot theory and homotopy groups. The general homotopy groups of
spheres can be expressed as certain canonical sub-quotients of link
groups. Also a canonical simplicial resolution of a knot group can
provide a combinatorial model for the loop space of 3-spheres. These
connections seem to address some new questions in knot theory. The talk
will aim to general audience.
