This is the wiki portion of Dror Bar-Natan's web site. It is not a standalone page - it has no overall tree structure and there is no specific entry point. Rather it is just the common location for those of for my pages that could benefit from being editable by others and/or from having their history preserved and/or by having an associated "discussion" page.
Ok. Here are some of the pages here anyway:

Cue Cards
A cue card is a very short (usually one page or less) informal note (often with more diagrams and formulas than words) containing the essence of a complicated definition, construction or proof for easy reference at later dates. A well designed cue card may not be readable for an outsider - it is not a paper and not even a paperlet. But it should be readable by its author (and possibly his/her close collaborators) for at least a few years after it was written assuming normal memory and brain cell lose. It should be reasonably (and sometimes, very) accurate in as much as normalizations and conventions are concerned, as often the main purpose of a cue card is to keep track of those. No originality is ever claimed yet credits may be sparse.
