The minimum cross-energy conjecture for the Hopf link
A Hopf link is a link consisting of two disjoint circles linked once. Its cross-energy is the interaction energy between the two components, and let its minimum be taken over all g…

Kusner–Sullivan conjecture on minimizers among non-prime knots
Let a knot be prime if it cannot be divided into simpler knots, and consider the Möbius energy of a knot. Kusner–Sullivan conjecture. There are no minimizers among non-prime knots.…
