- Title
Isogonal 2‐periodic polycatenanes: chain mail.
- Authors
O'Keeffe, Michael; Treacy, Michael M. J.
- Abstract
For 2‐periodic polycatenanes with isogonal (vertex‐transitive) embeddings, the basic units linked are torus knots and links including the unknots (untangled polygons). Twenty‐four infinite families have been identified, with hexagonal, tetragonal or rectangular symmetry. The simplest members of each family are described and illustrated. A method for determining the catenation number of a ring based on electromagnetic theory is described.
