Review text

Consider an immersion \(u:S^1\to\mathbb{R}^2\) of the circle into the plane, \(u'(x)\neq 0\) for all \(x\in S^1\). Suppose also that the image \(u(S^1)\) has only double points of intersection and the intersection in each double point is transversal (i.e., the tangent vectors to branches of the image are not collinear). A complicated problem follows: How-many unicursal curves (considered up to isotopies) are there with a given number of double points? This problem is yet not solved. In the present paper we give an upper estimate for the number of these curves and write out a matrix integral enumerating them. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0910.00021].
