论文摘要
在本说明中,我们表明功能区和协和在一组结上形成了部分顺序,回答了戈登的问题。证明利用结组的表示形式为$ so(n)$,以及由色带一致性引起的它们之间的关系。
In this note we show that ribbon concordance forms a partial ordering on the set of knots, answering a question of Gordon. The proof makes use of representation varieties of the knot groups to $SO(N)$ and relations between them induced by a ribbon concordance.
