Abstract
We prove the existence of symmetric critical torus knots for O'Hara's knot energy family Eα, α∈(2,3) using Palais' classic principle of symmetric criticality. It turns out that in every torus knot class there are at least two smooth Eα-critical knots, which supports experimental observations using numerical gradient flows.
