Upper bounds onReidemeistermoves

Alex Coward
(Oxford)
Abstract

Given any two diagrams of the same knot or link, we

provide an explicit upper bound on the number of Reidemeister moves required to

pass between them in terms of the number of crossings in each diagram. This

provides a new and conceptually simple solution to the equivalence problem for

knot and links. This is joint work with Marc Lackenby.
