Abstract
|
We define a notion of concordance based on Euler characteristic, and show that it gives rise to a
concordance group
of links in
,
which has the concordance group of knots as a direct summand with infinitely
generated complement. We consider variants of this using oriented and unoriented
surfaces as well as smooth and locally flat embeddings.
