Exotic Ribbon Disks and Symplectic Surfaces: Computational Knot Theory Data

Kyle Hayden from Columbia University provides supplementary calculations for a paper on exotic ribbon disks and symplectic surfaces. The dataset includes results from SnapPy software for isometry groups of hyperbolic 3-manifolds and knot invariants computed via the HFK Calculator. All supporting software is publicly available and cited in the original paper.

Use Cases

• Verify theoretical results in knot theory based on computed knot Floer homology invariants.
• Analyze properties of hyperbolic 3-manifolds based on isometry group calculations from SnapPy.
• Reproduce or extend computational findings from the paper 'Exotic ribbon disks and symplectic surfaces'.

Strengths

• Data is directly tied to a published academic paper, providing context and verification.
• All computational software used (SnapPy, HFK Calculator) is publicly available and cited.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
