Given a uniformly convergent sequence of ambient isotopies (Hn) n∈N , bijectivity of the limit function H∞ together with a minor compactness condition guarantees that H∞ is also an ambient isotopy. By offloading the uniform convergence hypothesis to a more diagrammatic condition, we obtain sufficient conditions for performing countably-many Reidemeister moves. We use this to construct examples of tame knots with countably-many crossings and discuss what distinguishes these from similar-looking wild curves. Contents 1. Introduction 2. Background 2.1.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
