Milnor conjecture In mathematics, the Milnor conjecture was a proposal by of a description of the Milnor K-theory (mod 2) of a general field ''F'' with characteristic different from 2, by means of the Galois (or equivalently étale) cohomology of ''F'' w ...

knot theory In the mathematical field of topology, knot theory is the study of knot (mathematics), mathematical knots. While inspired by knots which appear in daily life, such as those in shoelaces and rope, a mathematical knot differs in that the ends are ...

Milnor invariants In knot theory, an area of mathematics, the link group of a link is an analog of the knot group of a knot. They were described by John Milnor in his Ph.D. thesis, . Notably, the link group is not in general the fundamental group of the link complem ...
* Milnor manifold * Milnor map * Milnor–Moore theorem * Milnor number *
Milnor ring In mathematics, Milnor K-theory is an algebraic invariant (denoted K_*(F) for a field F) defined by as an attempt to study higher algebraic K-theory in the special case of fields. It was hoped this would help illuminate the structure for algebr ...
*
Milnor sphere In an area of mathematics called differential topology, an exotic sphere is a differentiable manifold ''M'' that is homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic to the standard Euclidean ''n''-sphere. That is, ''M'' is a sphere from the point of view of al ...

Lie group In mathematics, a Lie group (pronounced ) is a group that is also a differentiable manifold. A manifold is a space that locally resembles Euclidean space, whereas groups define the abstract concept of a binary operation along with the additio ...
