    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_G

    The Delta G, or Thor-Delta G was an American expendable launch system used to launch two biological research satellites in 1966 and 1967. It was a member of the Delta family of rockets. The Delta G was a two-stage derivative of the Delta E. The first stage was a Thor missile in the DSV-2C configuration and the second stage was a Delta E.

  4. Prime knot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_knot

    The figure-eight knot, with four crossings, is the simplest non-torus knot. For any positive integer n, there are a finite number of prime knots with n crossings. The first few values for exclusively prime knots (sequence A002863 in the OEIS) and for prime or composite knots (sequence A086825 in the OEIS) are given in the following table.

    Stevedore knot (mathematics), a prime knot with crossing number 6; Three-twist knot is the twist knot with three-half twists, also known as the 5 2 knot. Trefoil knot A knot with crossing number 3; Unknot; Knot complement, a compact 3 manifold obtained by removing an open neighborhood of a proper embedding of a tame knot from the 3-sphere.

  7. Linking number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linking_number

    Any framed knot has a self-linking number obtained by computing the linking number of the knot C with a new curve obtained by slightly moving the points of C along the framing vectors. The self-linking number obtained by moving vertically (along the blackboard framing) is known as Kauffman's self-linking number.

  8. HOMFLY polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HOMFLY_polynomial

    In the mathematical field of knot theory, the HOMFLY polynomial or HOMFLYPT polynomial, sometimes called the generalized Jones polynomial, is a 2-variable knot polynomial, i.e. a knot invariant in the form of a polynomial of variables m and l. A central question in the mathematical theory of knots is whether two knot diagrams represent the same ...

  9. Arf invariant of a knot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arf_invariant_of_a_knot

    Let =, be a Seifert matrix of the knot, constructed from a set of curves on a Seifert surface of genus g which represent a basis for the first homology of the surface. This means that V is a 2g × 2g matrix with the property that V − V T is a symplectic matrix. The Arf invariant of the knot is the residue of
