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.

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.

Lissajous knots and billiard knots

Vaughan Jones, Józef Przytycki (1998)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We show that Lissajous knots are equivalent to billiard knots in a cube. We consider also knots in general 3-dimensional billiard tables. We analyse symmetry of knots in billiard tables and show in particular that the Alexander polynomial of a Lissajous knot is a square modulo 2.

Virtual Legendrian isotopy

Vladimir Chernov, Rustam Sadykov (2016)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

An elementary stabilization of a Legendrian knot L in the spherical cotangent bundle ST*M of a surface M is a surgery that results in attaching a handle to M along two discs away from the image in M of the projection of the knot L. A virtual Legendrian isotopy is a composition of stabilizations, destabilizations and Legendrian isotopies. A class of virtual Legendrian isotopy is called a virtual Legendrian knot. In contrast to Legendrian knots, virtual Legendrian knots...
