Abstract: The harmonic knot $H(a,b,c)$ is parametrized as $K(t)=(T_a(t),T_b(t),T_c(t))$ where $a$, $b$ and $c$ are pairwise coprime integers and $T_n$ is the degree $n$ Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind. We classify the harmonic knots $H(a,b,c)$ for $ale4.$ We study the knots $H(2n-1,2n,2n+1),$ the knots $H(5,n,n+1),$ and give a table of the simplest harmonic knots.
