The Structure of the Cayley Complex and a Cubic-Time Algorithm for Solving the Conjugacy Problem for Groups of Prime Alternating Knots
Abstract
dc:descriptionThis paper is as self-contained as possible, requiring only some familiarity with groups and with some concepts from first-year topology; some experience with graphs and/or geometric 2-complexes is helpful. The preface includes a history of knot theory and combinatorial group theory.
