Concordance of spatial graphs

Abstract

We define smooth notions of concordance and sliceness for spatial graphs. We prove that sliceness of a spatial graph is equivalent to a condition on a set of linking numbers together with sliceness of a link associated to the graph. This generalizes the result of Taniyama for θ-curves.
