Talk

Multiple volunteers read an OpenAI preprint and present their findings with regard to the following questions.

1) Is it true? (to the best of our judgment)
2) Is it well written and up to community standards?
3) Were papers appropriately cited?
4) Did OpenAI follow the advice of the advisory board?

After the volunteers present their experience and findings, we discuss questions. Ideally, we would come up with strategies to digest these papers or recommendations for OpenAI on how to improve the process.

In this talk, we will discuss the history and construction of Khovanov homology and explore its connections to other areas of mathematics. Along the way, we will see how Khovanov homology brings together ideas from knot theory, topology, representation theory, and beyond, illustrating why it has become such a rich and influential subject.
