Polygonal knot space near ropelength-minimized knots
Kenneth C. Millett, Michael Piatek, Eric J. Rawdon
For a polygonal knot K, it is shown that a tube of radius R(K), the polygonal thickness radius, is an embedded torus. Given a thick configuration K, perturbations of size r<R(K) de…

Moebius energy of thick knots
Eric J. Rawdon, Jonathan Simon
The Moebius energy of a knot is an energy functional for smooth curves based on an idea of self-repelling. If a knot has a thick tubular neighborhood, we would intuitively expect t…
