Links B(p,4). When p is odd (top) two T(p,2) knots are linked. The associated braid, qca, is shown with black markers indicating repeat units. Red and orange form a helical bundle of one handedness; blue and green a bundle of opposite handedness. When p is even the links are four p-gons. B(6,4) and B(7,4) are shown in two different orientations. |
