For smooth knots in the 3 sphere, concordance has a purely geometrical definition as the equivalence generated by genus 0 cobordisms in the sphere times an interval. For virtual knots, the relation is extended by using diagram-based definitions. Both framed and twisted virtual knots have a rigidity imbued by a choice of unit normal vector field to the knot. This talk presents combinatorial definitions for concordance of framed and twisted virtual knots and slice obstructions coming from self-linking numbers.Non UBCUnreviewedAuthor affiliation: University of TorontoGraduat
