Would be a neat explanation for the engine driving the epoch of
inflation... also wonder what the implications would be for the
multiverse hypothesis that relies upon a mechanism of eternal
inflation (leading to an infinity of bubble universes), if inflation
is instead an extremely short lived phenomena driven by the latent
energy of cosmic knots. All speculative, but nevertheless also
thought provoking. I especially like how it would provide a
mechanism for why we experience a 3-D + time geometry and not some
other number of dimensions.

Why is our universe three dimensional? Cosmic knots could untangle
the mystery

Next time you’re untangling your earbuds, remember that knots may
have played a crucial part in kickstarting our universe, and without
them we wouldn’t live in 3D. That’s the strange story pitched by
physicists in a new paper, to help plug a few plot
Quite interesting. I suspect knots and braids (and Temperley Algebra)
are intermediate between number and quantized geometries, and provide
indeed the constraints for the "spatial" dimensions, a bit like I
suspect the finite simple group to determine the particle symmetries.
Programming a quantum topological universal machine/number is
essentially encoding information in braids, which I think should be
enough for the digital unitary matrices.
Note that that site crashed my old computer, but not my small portable
fortunately. Some site have no respect for the old machines!
