1053.0. "Jones Polynomials, knots, physics?" by SDOGUS::DRAKE (Dave (Diskcrash) Drake 619-268-2660) Mon Apr 10 1989 03:10

    Has anyone had contact with Jones Polynomials as applied to knot
    theory? There have been some recent articles about these being applied
    to problems in physics. Are there any refs, books or comments?

    Scientific American, November 1990 has an article entitled "Knot Theory
    and Statistical Mechanics" by Vaughan F. R. Jones. It may be of
    interest although the physics was way over my head. The article also
    gives suggestions for further reading.
