The course introduces the student to the mathematical foundations of knot theory. Basic concepts, notions of equivalence and tools for analysing and differentiating knots and links are presented. Various notions of how to construct knots and notation for describing a knot are explored. Invariants for knots are discussed, including: knot colouring, crossing numbers, knot genus and knot polynomials.

Lecture Notes will be produced periodically as material is covered.

Basic knowledge of Linear Algebra and Topology is required.

Working language (including lecture notes and recommended books) is English.

The students can optionally use German for solving problem sets and answering exam questions.
