Unknotting number and knot diagram.

Yasutaka Nakanishi (1996)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

Similarity:

This note is a continuation of a former paper, where we have discussed the unknotting number of knots with respect to knot diagrams. We will show that for every minimum-crossing knot-diagram among all unknotting-number-one two-bridge knot there exist crossings whose exchange yields the trivial knot, if the third Tait conjecture is true.

Torus knots that cannot be untied by twisting.

Mohamed Ait Nouh, Akira Yasuhara (2001)

Revista Matemática Complutense

Similarity:

We give a necessary condition for a torus knot to be untied by a single twisting. By using this result, we give infinitely many torus knots that cannot be untied by a single twisting.
