This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

Comments

The unknotting number of a knot is the minimal number of crossing switches required to convert a knot into the unknot (0 crossing).
Row n is a partition of A002863(n).
Row 10 cannot yet be completed because the unknotting number of some knots are still unknown.

a(n) counts the prime knots with n crossings satisfying u(K) = (1/2)*abs(sigma(K)), where u(K) denote the unknotting numbers of the knot K, and sigma(K) its signature.

Examples

			Let K denote a prime knot in Alexander-Briggs notation, and let sigma(K) and u(K) denote the signature and the unknotting number of the knot K, respectively. The following table gives some of the first prime knots with the property u(K) = (1/2)*abs(sigma(K)).
==================================================================
|    K     | 3_1 | 5_1 | 5_2 | 6_2 | 7_1 | 7_2 | 7_5 | 7_6 | 8_2 |
