Abstract

A new general method is described for obtaining ambient isotopy or regular isotopy invariants of even valence rigid vertex graphs embedded in three-dimensional space. The paper concentrates on the case of 4-valent vertices and defines an RNA vertex in analogy to the structure of a folded molecule. Examples are given to show how these methods can discriminate graph embeddings that are indistinguishable via Vassiliev invariants. Applications to molecular folding are discussed.
