Double branched covers of knotoids

By using double branched covers, we prove that there is a 1-1 correspondence between the set of knotoids in S2, up to orientation reversion and rotation, and knots with a strong inversion, up to conjugacy. This correspondence allows us to study knotoids through tools and invariants coming from knot...
