Tobias EKHOLM - 2/3 Knot contact homology and string topology
Channel: Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques (IHÉS)

We show how to relate knot contact homology to a version of string topology. More precisely we express knot contact homology in terms of strings in the singular space which is the union of the three sphere and the Lagrangian conormal of the knot that split in a certain way when they hit the knot.
