The Two Trefoil Knots

Max Dehn

A chapter in Papers on Group Theory and Topology, 1987, pp 203-228 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract In the following I wish to show that investigation of the groups associated with interwoven space curves (knots) puts us in a position to treat basic topological problems simply and rigorously. For this purpose I have chosen a seemingly special example, which on the one hand is of general interest, while on the other hand being so simple that no special difficulties stand in the way of the method.
