		Braids ^Votes:0 Braids Braids and Quantization rambling lectures by John C. Baez May 14, 1992 Available in Postscript and LaTeX , thanks to Michael Weiss. Also available in a high-tech format, which may not actually be better, but takes longer to download. The Conway Polynomial These days I'm mainly working on the relationship of braids and quantization. Lots of people are interested in that these days, but lots more aren't, I bet, so let me briefly explain just a bit.... There's a knot invariant called the Conway polynomial that may be defined by essentially 2 rules. It's a polynomial in one variable, say z; let's call the polynomial assigned to the knot (or link) K, P(K). (It's traditional to use a nabla but I'll use a P.) Okay: Rule 1: If K is the unknot (an unknotted circle), P(K) = 1. This is sort of Read More Go to Site

Look at Nebulae Look at Star Clusters Look at Galaxies During the years from 1758 to 1782 Charles Messier , a French astronomer ( 1730 - 1817 ), compiled a list of approximately 100 diffuse objects that were difficult to distinguish from comets through the telescopes of the day. Discovering comets was the way to make a name for yourself in astronomy in the 18th century -- Messier's first aim was to catalog the objects that were often mistaken for comets. Fortunately for us, the Messier Catalog became well known for a much higher purpose, as a collection of the most beautif Read More Go to Site
