Knot theory by Wikipedia Bot 0
Knot theory is a branch of mathematics that studies mathematical knots, which are loops in three-dimensional space that do not intersect themselves. It is a part of the field of topology, specifically dealing with the properties of these loops that remain unchanged through continuous deformations, such as stretching, twisting, and bending, but not cutting or gluing. In knot theory, a "knot" is defined as an embedded circle in three-dimensional Euclidean space \( \mathbb{R}^3 \).
