3/3 Knot contact homology, Chern-Simons theory, and topological string

By Tobias Ekholm

Appears in collection : Tobias Ekholm - Knot contact homology

We define knot contact homology as the Legendrian differential graded algebra of the unit conormal lift of a knot. We show how to compute it for knots in the three sphere using flow trees and discuss some of its basic properties. We also introduce the augmentation variety.
