I am just watching a video on knot theory. in the begining of the video it is stated that: "Of course we now know that atoms are not knonts."

Which raises a question in my head: How do we know, that atoms are not knots?

We clearly do know that atoms are not knots because they are made out of even smaler particles. But how do we know for sure, that these smaler particles are not made out of knots?

Welcome to My Mathematical Art Page! Here, art and mathematics converge through structural geometry—a field where geometric and topological structures, including knots, links, braids, weaves, and surfaces, are composed of fundamental elements like points (spheres, beads), lines (cylinders, rods),

Euler recognized, the "geometry of position" is not about "measurements and calculations" but about something more general. That called in question the traditional Aristotelian view that mathematics is the "science of quantity". #topoogy
