Reidemeister type moves for knots and links in lens spaces

We introduce the concept of regular diagrams for knots and links in lens spaces, proving that two diagrams represent equivalent links if and only if they are related by a finite sequence of seven Reidemester type moves. As a particular case, we obtain diagrams and moves for links in ℝℙ3 previously i...

description We introduce the concept of regular diagrams for knots and links in lens spaces, proving that two diagrams represent equivalent links if and only if they are related by a finite sequence of seven Reidemester type moves. As a particular case, we obtain diagrams and moves for links in ℝℙ3 previously introduced by Y.V. Drobothukina.
