The 11th Sino-Russian Conference on Knot Theory and Related Topics

Description

Knot theory is an actively developing branch of geometry and topology. Modern knot
theory includes the study of knots in thickened surfaces and other three-dimensional
manifolds, knotoids, and knotted graphs, etc. It is characterized by a combination of
methods of three-dimensional topology, algebraic topology, group theory,
representation theory, and non-Euclidean geometry. The purpose of the conference
is to present new results and discuss open problems related to current trends in knot
theory. This conference aims to present cutting-edge results and address open
problems in current research, with a focus on classical and virtual knot invariants,
geometric structures in low-dimensional topology, braid groups, quandles, Yang-
Baxter equations, and applications of knot theory. As the 11th edition of the China-
Russia conference series alternately hosted in both countries, it furthers the
tradition of bilateral collaboration in this field.
