Dror likes to call 6_2 "The Miller Institute Knot", as it is the logo of the Miller Institute for Basic Research.

The bowline knot of practical knot tying deforms to 6_2.

V2,1 through V6,9 were provided by Petr Dunin-Barkowski <barkovs@itep.ru>, Andrey Smirnov <asmirnov@itep.ru>, and Alexei Sleptsov <sleptsov@itep.ru> and uploaded on October 2010 by User:Drorbn. Note that they are normalized differently than V2 and V3.

Khovanov Homology

The coefficients of the monomials are shown, along with their alternating sums (fixed , alternation over ). The squares with yellow highlighting are those on the "critical diagonals", where or , where -2 is the signature of 6 2. Nonzero entries off the critical diagonals (if any exist) are highlighted in red.
