Volume computations are fast, so for every knot K whose volume was within 0.001 of M.volume(), I used M.is_isometric_to(K) to compare them. It found 16n847920 in just over 45 minutes, which is fine for isolated examples but I'd also like to know if there's a faster way. | |
| Mar 15, 2023 at 11:43 | comment | added | Christoph Lamm | Thanks. This is already helpful. There are two remaining topics: 1) Does anyone find an identification of the above knot when we do not already have a candidate for it? (Which other tools might be successful in this case?) 2) For somebody with a local installation of Knotscape: Does the same error message occur as in Knot Finder? (And can the cause of the error message be located in the code?) | |
