Parametrized Knot Theory (memoirs Of The American Mathematical Society)

Stanley Ocken. Volume 5, Issue 2. Originally Presented As The Author's Thesis, Princeton, 1974. Includes Bibliographical References. The author considers the set [italic]G[italic subscript]n[italic superscript]t([italic]M) (where [italic]M is a manifold) of embeddings of [italic]S[italic superscript]n × [italic]M in [italic]S[italic superscript]n+[italic superscript]2 × [italic]M, homotopic (relative to the boundary) to the standard embedding, modulo an equivalence relation that is a slight modification of the notion of concordance
