Ambient isotopy
In the mathematical subject of topology, an ambient isotopy, also called an h-isotopy, is a kind of continuous distortion of an ambient space, for example a manifold, taking a submanifold to another submanifold.

Hale Trotter
Hale Freeman Trotter (born 30 May 1931, Kingston, Ontario) is a Canadian-American mathematician, known for the Hale product formula, the Steinhaus–Johnson–Trotter algorithm, and the Lang-Trotter conjecture.

Knot (mathematics)
In mathematics, a knot is an embedding of a circle S^1 in 3-dimensional Euclidean space, R3 (also known as E3), considered up to continuous deformations (isotopies).

Knot invariant
In the mathematical field of knot theory, a knot invariant is a quantity (in a broad sense) defined for each knot which is the same for equivalent knots.

Topology
In mathematics, topology (from the Greek τόπος, place, and λόγος, study) is concerned with the properties of space that are preserved under continuous deformations, such as stretching, crumpling and bending, but not tearing or gluing.

Trefoil knot
In topology, a branch of mathematics, the trefoil knot is the simplest example of a nontrivial knot.

Tunnel number
In mathematics, the tunnel number of a knot, as first defined by Bradd Clark, is a knot invariant, given by the minimal number of arcs (called tunnels) that must be added to the knot so that the complement becomes a handlebody.
