Strict Minimality of Alternating Knots in S × I
Preview AbstractFor prime knots that lie in the plane, it is known that a reduced alternating projection of a knot has fewer crossings than any non-alternating projection of that knot. We show a similar result for knots that lie in S × I, where S is a surface. A combination of polynomial, geometric and topological techniques are used.
