Is there a polynomial-time algorithm for untangling the unknot?
I seem to have a polynomial-time algorithm that untangles the unknot. But I suspect that hubris lurks around every corner in this game.
I'm pretty sure I can show that the algorithm runs in polynomia …

Is there a polynomial-time algorithm for untangling the unknot?
I've found assertions that recognising the unknot is NP (but not explicitly NP hard or NP complete). …
