Energy and thickness of knots (English)
0 references
The article is a survey of recent developments and results in the study of the concrete behaviour of ``physical knots'', e.g. DNA loops, relating it to various notions of knot complexity as energy, thickness and edge number. Two computer packages are described to study these concepts, and the paper closes with a long list of references in this field between knot theory and natural sciences. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0896.00020].
