While working with POV Ray, I stumbled on this great article from the American Mathematical Society’s Monthly Essays. This article examines the Lorenz attractor and its periodic orbits. It turns out that the periodic orbits form knots, but not just any knots. They comprise only a very small subset of possible knots.
The article continues to [...]
