Möbius-band trefoil folded ribbonlength conjecture
Möbius-band trefoil folded ribbonlength conjecture
Let be a folded ribbon trefoil knot that is topologically a Möbius band, and let denote its infimal folded ribbonlength in the Möbius-band ribbon-equivalence class. Möbius-band trefoil folded ribbonlength conjecture. The infimal folded ribbonlength is
The displayed folded ribbon trefoil provides the value , and the conjecture asserts that this value is infimal within the topological Möbius-band class.
