An integral region choice problem on knot projection

Geometric Topology 2012-01-24 v1

Abstract

In this paper we propose {\it a region choice problem} for a knot projection. This problem is an integral extension of Shimizu's 'region crossing change unknotting operation.' We show that there exists a solution of the region choice problem for all knot projections.
