DESCRIPTION:Knot Floer homology is an invariant for knots and links define
 d by Ozsvath and Szabo and independently by Rasmussen. It has proven to be
  a powerful invariant e.g. in computing the genus of a knot\, or determini
 ng whether a knot is fibered.   \n\nIn this talk I define a generalisation
  of knot Floer homology for tangles. Tangle Floer homology is an invariant
  of tangles in D^3\, S^2xI or in S^3. Tangle Floer homology satisfies a pa
 iring theorem and its version in S^3 gives back a stabilisation of knot Fl
 oer homology. The talk will assume some interest\, but little or no backgr
 ound in these topics.\n\nThis is a joint work with Ina Petkova. \n
