Let an invariant of chord diagrams satisfy the $T4T$ and $TFI$ relations. An invariant is integrated one step when it is lifted to an invariant at the next diagrammatic level. The…

Let $\mathcal{M}^{G}$ be the moduli space associated with a simple group $G$, and let the star product be the product defined by equation on the chord-diagram algebra. Descent conj…

Elementary-transformation generation conjecture. The group of elementary transformations is generated by transformations of the following two types: reflecting a share across anoth…

Conway–Kinoshita–Terasaka conjecture. The chord diagrams $C$ and $KT$ are not equivalent.

Let $D$ be a chord diagram, and let its intersection graph $\Gamma(D)$ be the simple graph whose vertices are the chords of $D$, with two vertices adjacent exactly when the corresp…

A chord diagram is $k$-terminal-minimal if it is $k$-terminal and minimal with respect to that property under the reduction considered in the paper. The forbidden-subdiagram charac…
