The Tait conjectures, proposed by the Scottish mathematician Peter Guthrie Tait in the late 19th century, relate to the field of knot theory, a branch of topology. Tait conjectured that there are specific relationships between the number of crossings in a knot diagram and its properties, particularly concerning its link or knot type.
