Topological Insights from the Chinese Rings

چکیده
L. Kauffman conjectured that a particular solution of the Chinese Rings puzzle is the simplest possible. We prove his conjecture by using low-dimensional topology and group theory. We notice also a surprising connection between the Chinese Rings and Habiro moves (related to Vassiliev invariants).

Task-based Language Teaching in L2 English Writing Classrooms: Insights from Chinese Senior Secondary Schools
There is little research on the task-based teaching approach in senior secondary L2 English writing classrooms. This study carried out an exploratory sequential mixed methods study to explore the suitability and adaptations of task-based language teaching in the domain of secondary schools in small cities. First, the researcher surveyed six EFL senior secondary teachers of different teaching ex...
متن کاملOn categories of merotopic, nearness, and filter algebras
We study algebraic properties of categories of Merotopic, Nearness, and Filter Algebras. We show that the category of filter torsion free abelian groups is an epireflective subcategory of the category of filter abelian groups. The forgetful functor from the category of filter rings to filter monoids is essentially algebraic and the forgetful functor from the category of filter groups to the cat...
متن کاملGeneralized f-clean rings
In this paper, we introduce the new notion of n-f-clean rings as a generalization of f-clean rings. Next, we investigate some properties of such rings. We prove that $M_n(R)$ is n-f-clean for any n-f-clean ring R. We also, get a condition under which the denitions of n-cleanness and n-f-cleanness are equivalent.
متن کاملCommuting $pi$-regular rings
R is called commuting regular ring (resp. semigroup) if for each x,y $in$ R there exists a $in$ R such that xy = yxayx. In this paper, we introduce the concept of commuting $pi$-regular rings (resp. semigroups) and study various properties of them.
متن کاملAn introduction to topological hyperrings
In this paper, we define topological hyperrings and study their basic concepts which supported by illustrative examples. We show some differences between topological rings and topological hyperrings. Also, by the fundamental relation $\Gamma^{*}$, we indicate the role of complete parts (saturated subsets) and complete hyperrings in topological hyperrings and specially we show that if every (clo...
