Nobody is perfect, and I might have said something silly. If there is any doubt, then please check the references.

Disclaimer.
Geometric topology is usually the study of manifolds. This can mean manifold things ;-) So to be precise, this lecture is mostly about knots, surfaces, and graphs.

Sorry.
These lectures were automatically recorded via the University of Sydney’s recording system. The audio quality could be better, I guess, but I can't change that.
