\section{Introduction}\label{sec:Introduction} In \cite{math.QA/9909027}, Jones introduced the notion of a {\it planar algebra} as an axiomatization of the standard invariant of a finite index subfactor. A planar algebra (in vector spaces) is a sequence of vector spaces $\cP[0]$, $\cP[1]$, $\cP[2], \ldots$ called the...

I thought before that $f:X\to Y$ and $g:Y\to X$ are homotopy equivalence iff one can deform $X$ continuously to $Y$. But this is wrong in general. So I tried the following: Q1:...
