= Unknotting problem
{wiki=Unknotting_problem}
The Unknotting Problem is a well-known problem in the field of topology, particularly in knot theory, which is a branch of mathematics that studies the properties and classifications of knots. The problem can be stated as follows: **Problem Statement**: Given a knot (a closed loop in three-dimensional space that does not intersect itself), determine whether the knot is equivalent to an "unknotted" loop (a simple, non-intersecting circle).
