Classification of Rational Knots of Low Degree in the 3-Sphere
by
Shane D'Mello
Stony Brook University

The classification of rational knots in the projective space, up to rigid isotopy, is known for knots of degrees 5 and less. Here we will classify rational knots in the 3-sphere that are of degrees 6 and less. The 3-sphere will be treated as a subvariety of RP4.
