Crossing number (knot theory)
In the mathematical area of knot theory, the crossing number of a knot is the smallest number of crossings of any diagram of the knot.

Fibered knot
In knot theory, a branch of mathematics, a knot or link K in the 3-dimensional sphere S^3 is called fibered or fibred (sometimes Neuwirth knot in older texts, after Lee Neuwirth) if there is a 1-parameter family F_t of Seifert surfaces for K, where the parameter t runs through the points of the unit circle S^1, such that if s is not equal to t then the intersection of F_s and F_t is exactly K. For example.

Lissajous knot
In knot theory, a Lissajous knot is a knot defined by parametric equations of the form where n_x, n_y, and n_z are integers and the phase shifts \phi_x, \phi_y, and \phi_z may be any real numbers.

Unknotting number
In the mathematical area of knot theory, the unknotting number of a knot is the minimum number of times the knot must be passed through itself (crossing switch) to untie it.
