In 1969 Levine defined a surjective homomorphism from the knot concordance group to the so called algebraic concordance group, which is a Witt group of Seifert forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Studying symmetric knots and in particular strongly invertible knots, a natural question is whether it is possible to define an appropriate equivariant version of algebraic concordance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this talk we briefly recall Levine’s construction and we highlight some of the problems occuring when trying to define its equivariant analogous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, we define a notion of equivariant algebraic concordance for strongly invertible knots and we show some of the differences with the classical case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
