The mathematics. The discovery of all possible ways to tie a tie depends on a mathematical formulation of the act of tying a tie. In their papers (which are technical) and book (which is for a lay audience, apart from an appendix), the authors show that necktie knots are equivalent to persistent random walks on a triangular lattice, with some constraints on how the walks begin and end.
While New Mexico ranks low on the number of weddings, it’s also one of the cheapest states for the big day, at an average cost of $20,157 in 2023, Wedding Report reported, ranking the state 45 ...

Instructions. [1] The bowline ( / ˈboʊlɪn / or / ˈboʊlaɪn /) [2] is an ancient and simple knot used to form a fixed loop at the end of a rope. It has the virtues of being both easy to tie and untie; most notably, it is easy to untie after being subjected to a load. The bowline is sometimes referred to as king of the knots because of its ...
A necktie with a tie clasp. A necktie, or simply a tie, is a piece of cloth worn for decorative purposes around the neck, resting under the shirt collar and knotted at the throat, and often draped down the chest. Variants include the ascot, bow, bolo, zipper tie, cravat, and knit. The modern necktie, ascot, and bow tie are descended from the ...
Cable lacing is a method for tying wiring harnesses and cable looms, traditionally used in telecommunication, naval, and aerospace applications. This old cable management technique, taught to generations of lineworkers, [1] is still used in some modern applications since it does not create obstructions along the length of the cable, avoiding ...
Chinese parents tend to find their children blind dates in parks. "Spouse-hunting fairs in big city parks by parents eager to see their children tie the knot have made parks in China a haven for relationship hunters and their parents". Zhongshan Park has been the location where parents go to seek partners for their children. This process begins ...
This four-component link is a Brunnian link. In knot theory, a branch of topology, a Brunnian link is a nontrivial link that becomes a set of trivial unlinked circles if any one component is removed. In other words, cutting any loop frees all the other loops (so that no two loops can be directly linked ). The name Brunnian is after Hermann ...
