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.

Edge number results for piecewise-Linear knots

Monica Meissen (1998)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The minimal number of edges required to form a knot or link of type K is the edge number of K, and is denoted e(K). When knots are drawn with edges, they are appropriately called piecewise-linear or PL knots. This paper presents some edge number results for PL knots. Included are illustrations of and integer coordinates for the vertices of several prime PL knots.

Nonfibered knots and representation shifts

Daniel S. Silver, Susan G. Williams (2009)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

A conjecture of [swTAMS] states that a knot is nonfibered if and only if its infinite cyclic cover has uncountably many finite covers. We prove the conjecture for a class of knots that includes all knots of genus 1, using techniques from symbolic dynamics.
