Description

The Torus Knot Group is described by a space curve r(phi).

                (cos(q*phi)+2)*cos(p*phi) 
With r(phi) = ( (cos(q*phi)+2)*sin(p*phi) ) 0<=phi<=2pi
                        sin(q*phi)

By interlacing a string through the hole of a torus p times with q revolutions, a (p,q)-torus knot results. The ends of the string are joined together. The variables p,q are relatively prime. And has the following presentation:

tng(a,b)= < a,b| a^p = b^q = 1 >

Computation

/*Use the ApCoCoA package ncpoly.*/

// Define the variable q,p of the Torusknotengroup
//ggT(q,p)=1
MEMORY.P := 2;
MEMORY.Q := 3;
 
Use ZZ/(2)[a,b,c,d];
NC.SetOrdering("LLEX");

Define CreateRelationsTorusknoten()
  Relations:=[];
  
  //add the inverse relations
  Append(Relations,[[a,c],[1]]);
  Append(Relations,[[c,a],[1]]);
  Append(Relations,[[b,d],[1]]);
  Append(Relations,[[d,b],[1]]);
  
  // add the relation a^p = b^q 
  Append(Relations,[[a^MEMORY.P],[b^MEMORY.Q]]);
   Return Relations;
EndDefine;

Relations:=CreateRelationsTorusknoten();
Relations;

Gb:=NC.GB(Relations,31,1,100,1000);
Gb;
