The super-Kauffman conjecture for Turk’s head knots
The super-Kauffman conjecture for Turk’s head knots
Let denote a Turk’s head knot, with and . A knot is super-Kauffman if it admits a minimal alternating diagram whose every crossing has the Kauffman property. Super-Kauffman conjecture. All Turk’s head knots with and are super-Kauffman knots. The paper presents this as an open problem, and no resolution is supplied here.
