Applications, constructions, and interpretations of quandle cocycles
by
Masahico Saito
University of South Florida
In this talk, first an overview will be given on the three aspects mentioned in the title, for quandle cocycles and cocycke knot invariants. Then some new results and approaches will be discussed, such as relations between cocycle invariants and minimal Fox colors of knot diagrams, and constructions of quandle cocycles from a groupoid cohomology theory.
