Thanks to oxfordcomma for doing this with me.
Knot Theory
Manturov taught a knot theory class at Tsinghua in summer 2022. In this project, we will watch these lectures. No notes are taken because scribing knot theory notes is way too difficult.
Schedule
We skipped lecture 1 because we have both seen the content in it many times before.
