Smooth circle presentations #
The geometric presentation of an oriented knot in a manifold is a smooth embedding of the
standard oriented circle into that manifold. This file specializes TauCeti.SmoothEmbedding to
that source, without introducing a privileged Knot type, and supplies the two canonical kinds
of reparametrization of the circle:
- rotation by
a : Circle, which preserves the standard orientation; - complex conjugation, which reverses it.
The rotations use Mathlib's smooth scalar-action diffeomorphisms for the analytic Lie group
Circle; reflection is the smooth inversion map of that group. The resulting operations on
TauCeti.SmoothCircleEmbedding are instances of the general source-reparametrization operation
TauCeti.SmoothEmbedding.compDiffeomorph. In particular, they preserve the image and commute
with transport by a diffeomorphism of the ambient manifold.
This is the first geometric presentation requested by layer 4 of the geometric-topology roadmap. A parametrization gives the image circle its orientation. A framing is deliberately not included here: defining a push-off as a framing requires the tubular-neighbourhood interface from layer 1. The unoriented presentation is likewise a later quotient by orientation-reversing reparametrizations, rather than a second bundled embedding type.

A smooth circle presentation in a manifold modelled on I is a smooth embedding of the
standard complex unit circle into the manifold. Its parametrization orients the image circle.
