3-manifolds

Computing portal

Here is a list of articles in the 3-manifolds category of the Computing portal that unifies foundations of mathematics and computations using computers.

Once a small subfield of geometric topology, the theory of 3-manifolds has experienced tremendous growth in the latter half of the 20th century. The methods used tend to be quite specific to three dimensions, since different phenomena occur for 4-manifolds and higher dimensions.

Category:Knot theory may also be of interest because of the substantial overlap in content.
