ABOUT ME
I'm chiefly interested in spatial graph theory questions. I am working on problems relating small values of various graph parameters, such as the Colin deVerdière invariant or the Hadwiger number to topological properties of their complements, such as intrinsic linkness or intrisinc knottedness.
