Cubic lattice knots: 5_1 and 5_2
thingiverse
The 5_1 and 5_2 knots constructed so that their vertices lie on the cubic lattice. (The cubic lattice is the set of all points in 3-dimensional space where each of the three coordinates is an integer.) These knots were created by Chadrack Bantange and JCW (students in Math 383D Knot Theory Spring 2023). A description of how these knots were built can be found here: https://mathvis.academic.wlu.edu/2023/05/19/tying-knots-on-the-shortest-lattice-walks/ The data for the vertices of these knots is from Andrew Rechnitzer’s website found here: https://personal.math.ubc.ca/~andrewr/knots/minimal_knots.html This data is from the research paper: E.J. Janse van Rensburg and A. Rechnitzer Minimal knotted polygons in cubic lattices Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment: P09008 (2011).
