An axis of a link projection is a closed curve which lies symmetrically on each region of the link projection. In this paper we define axis systems of link projections and characterize axis systems of the standard projections of twist knots.
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.
