Realizations of Virtual Link Diagrams.
by
H. A. Dye
US Military Academy

A realization of a virtual link diagram is obtained by choosing over/under markings for each virtual crossing. Any realization can be obtained from some representation of the virtual link. We demonstrate that knotted realizations can be constructed from minimal genus representations that meet certain criteria.
