A.
Conway notation for knots
chosen
Conway notation for knots is a mathematical system introduced by John H. Conway that encodes knot and link diagrams into concise symbolic expressions to classify and study them.
-
B.
Conway polynomial
The Conway polynomial is an invariant of knots and links in topology that assigns a polynomial to each knot, capturing essential information about its structure and helping distinguish non-equivalent knots.
-
C.
Conway groups
Conway groups are a set of three closely related sporadic simple groups discovered by John H. Conway in the study of symmetries of the Leech lattice in group theory.
-
D.
Whyte notation
Whyte notation is a system for classifying steam locomotives by their wheel arrangement using a sequence of numbers separated by hyphens.
-
E.
Knuth’s up-arrow notation
Knuth’s up-arrow notation is a mathematical notation introduced by Donald Knuth to concisely represent very large integers using iterated exponentiation and its higher-order generalizations.
