| Jul 6, 2018 at 0:03 | comment | added | Mark S | Cantarella, Chapman, and Mastin's Knot Probabilities in Random Diagrams arxiv suggest a power-law/Zipf's distribution for diagrams. With up to 10 crossings, a random knot diagram of the unknot $0_1$ is still dominate. I suspect a similar Zipf's-like behavior for grid diagrams. | |
