Linking numbers in non-orientable 3-manifolds

V. A. Vassiliev



Abstract: The construction of integer linking numbers of closed curves in three-dimensional manifolds usually appeals to the orientability of these manifolds. I will discuss how (and when) it is possible to avoid this restriction in constructing similar invariants of links.
