Abstract

It is known that there exists a surjective map from the set of weak (1, 3) homotopy classes of knot projections to the set of positive knots [N. Ito and Y. Takimura, (1, 2) and weak (1, 3) homotopies on knot projections, J. Knot Theory Ramifications 22 (2013) 1350085]. An interesting question whether this map is also injective, which question was formulated independently by S. Kamada and Y. Nakanishi in 2013 (Question q1). This paper obtains an answer to this question.
