Abstract

This chapter briefly describes the motivation behind asking geometric questions regarding topological invariants of knots and links, and ends with an open question in that direction involving Heegaard Floer homology for links. This is based on the talk presented at ‘Knots, Quivers and Beyond’ conference at IIT Bombay, January 2025.
