Math Projects

I know you are all dying to know what interesting mathematics I have been doing in Tainan. Well I can summarizes my progress at:

1. Data structure now handle links previously only knots
2. The graphical engine LOGO has been replaced with gnuplot
3. Checkerboarding of each knot is complete
4. The database of knots and links is past 100
5. Computing the Tait number and the Kauffman bracket polynomial, gives me the Jones polynomial.WOW!

That's the great thing about living outside of the US. Your day is not caught up in the trivial day to day, you have hours and hours to do your own thing.

Here's a movie of some results.
