The seminar aims to introduce research topics in topology, geometry and its interactions with other sciences. Anyone interested in mathematics is welcome to attend.
Alternating knots are some of the simplest knots to describe, and they occur frequently in low crossing knot tables. Most alternating knots have a complement that admits a hyperbolic metric: a metric with constant curvature -1. However, it is difficult to relate the hyperbolic geometry of these knots to their diagrams, and there are several open conjectures on possible relationships. In this talk, Jessica Purcell (Professor at Monash University, Melbourne) will address one such conjecture, concerning cusp volume.

Associated to a cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold is a cusp shape, which is a point in the Teichmuller space of the torus. It is natural to ask which points in Teichmuller space arise. This is the second talk on this topic by Jessica Purcell (Professor at Monash University, Melbourne).
