An Introduction to High Dimensional Knotsby Eiji Ogasa - arXiv
This is an introductory article on high dimensional knots for the beginners. Is there a nontrivial high dimensional knot? We first answer this question. We explain local moves on high dimensional knots and the projections of high dimensional knots.
