Visualizing the tightening of knots
The study of physical models for knots has recently received much interest in the mathematics community. In this paper, we consider the ropelength model, which considers knots tie...

Evaluation of Stereoscopy and Lit Shading for a Counting Task in Knot Visualization
We present an experiment on depth cues for knot visualization in desktop virtual reality (fishtank VR). We used a within-subjects experiment to investigate stereoscopic visuals an...

Visualization of the Genus of Knots
The genus of a knot or link can be defined via Seifert surfaces. A Seifert surface of a knot or link is an oriented surface whose boundary coincides with that knot or link. Schem...

Protein knot server: detection of knots in protein structures
KNOTS (http://knots.mit.edu) is a web server that detects knots in protein structures. Several protein structures have been reported to contain intricate knots. The physiological ...

Haptic Exploration of Mathematical Knots
We present a novel multi-modal haptic interface for sketching and exploring the structure and properties of mathematical knots. Our interface derives from the familiar pencil-and-p...
