Knot invariant — In the mathematical field of knot theory, a knot invariant is a quantity (in a broad sense) defined for each knot which is the same for equivalent knots. The equivalence is often given by ambient isotopy but can be given by homeomorphism. Some… … Wikipedia

List of knot theory topics — Knot theory is the study of mathematical knots. While inspired by knots which appear in daily life in shoelaces and rope, a mathematician s knot differs in that the ends are joined together so that it cannot be undone. In precise mathematical… … Wikipedia
Hyperbolic volume (knot) — In the mathematical field of knot theory, the hyperbolic volume of a hyperbolic link is simply the volume of the link s complement with respect to its complete hyperbolic metric. The volume is necessarily finite. The hyperbolic volume of a non… … Wikipedia
Crossing number (knot theory) — In the mathematical area of knot theory, the crossing number of a knot is the minimal number of crossings of any diagram of the knot. It is a knot invariant. By way of example, the unknot has crossing number zero, the trefoil knot three and the… … Wikipedia
