Knot Theory
Milnor invariants are a set of numerical invariants that characterize the linking of multiple knots in three-dimensional space. They arise from the study of higher-order linking and provide essential insights into the topological properties of knots and their interactions. These invariants allow mathematicians to distinguish between different knots and links, enabling a deeper understanding of their structure and behavior.
congrats on reading the definition of Milnor invariants. now let's actually learn it.
