摘要
We construct nontrivial cohomology classes of the space Imb(S-1, R-n) of imbeddings of the circle into R-n by means of Feynman diagrams. More precisely, starting from a suitable linear combination of nontrivalent diagrams, we construct, for every even number n greater than or equal to 4, a de Rham cohomology class on Imb(S-1, R-n). We prove nontriviality of these classes by evaluation on the dual cycles.
