The generalized rosette knot cylinder-knot conjecture
Let and be positive integers, let for , and consider the closure of the braid
A generalized rosette knot is this closed braid. Generalized rosette knot conjecture. Every generalized rosette knot is a cylinder knot. The claim proposes that all such closures arise as billiard knots in a cylinder; the supplied text does not state whether this has been proved or remains open.
