Theta Functions And Knots

This book presents the relationship between classical theta functions and knots. It is based on a novel idea of Răzvan Gelca and Alejandro Uribe, which converts Weil's representation of the Heisenberg group on theta functions to a knot theoretical framework, by giving a topological interpretation to a certain induced representation. It also explains how the discrete Fourier transform can be related to 3- and 4-dimensional topology.Theta Functions and Knots can be read in two perspectives. Reader
