Abstract
Several complementary approaches to investigate knotted solutions of Maxwell's equations in vacuum are now available in literature. However, only partial results towards a unified description of them have been achieved. This is potentially worrying, since new developments of the theory possibly lie at the intersection between the appropriate formalisms. The aim of this paper is to pave the way for a theoretical framework in which this unification becomes feasible, in principle.
