The Conway knot is a specific type of knot in the field of knot theory, which is a branch of topology. It is named after mathematician John Horton Conway, who introduced it in 1967. The Conway knot is notable for being a non-trivial knot, which means it cannot be untangled into a simple loop without cutting the rope or string.
