DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/Freemath/29/
 ">Homological invariants of codimension 2 contact embeddings</a>\nby Laure
 nt Côté as part of Free Mathematics Seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nThere is a ri
 ch theory of transverse knots in 3-dimensional contact manifolds. It was a
  major open question in contact topology whether non-trivial transverse kn
 ots (i.e. codimension 2 contact embeddings) also exist in higher dimension
 s. This question was recently settled in the affirmative by Casals and Etn
 yre. Motivated by their result\, I will talk about recent work with Franco
 is-Simon Fauteux-Chapleau in which we develop invariants of codimension 2 
 contact embeddings using the machinery of symplectic field theory.\n
