Welcome to the home of the new Knot Atlas! This site aims to be a complete user-editable knot atlas, in the wiki spirit of Wikipedia. This site supersedes Dror Bar-Natan's Knot Atlas. It is being developed primarily by Scott and Dror, but any one can edit almost anything, anytime.

Extra: Tube plots with [Drawing with TubePlot|TubePlot].

See also: Jeremy Green's Table of Virtual Knots, Chuck Livingston's amazing Table of Knot Invariants, Hermann Gruber's atlas of rational knots and Paul Zinn-Justin's alternating virtual link database.


"God created the knots, all else in topology is the work of mortals."

Leopold Kronecker (modified) "Among Violet's many useful skills was a vast knowledge of different types of knots"
