Properties of a parametric curve in R^3 are often determined by analysis of its piecewise linear (PL) approximation. For Bezier curves, there are standard algorithms, known as subdivision, that recursively create PL curves that converge to the curve in distance . The exterior angles of PL curves under subdivision are s…

We give a topological characterisation of alternating knot exteriors based on the presence of special spanning surfaces. This shows that alternating is a topological property of the knot exterior and not just a property of diagrams, answering an old question of Fox. We also give a characterisation of alternating link e…

The ropelength of a space curve is usually defined as the quotient of its length by its thickness: the radius of the largest embedded tube around the knot. This idea was extended to space polygons by Eric Rawdon, who gave a definition of ropelength in terms of doubly-critical self-distances (local minima of the distanc…
