Abstract
We prove that every smooth -dimensional knot in can be ambiently isotoped into the Menger -dimensional continuum. In contrast with classical embedding theorems for universal compacta, our construction is explicit and proceeds via cubical models, combining the cubical realization theorem of Boege--Hinojosa--Verjovsky with the affine self-similarity of the Menger continuum.
