These are examples of approximately 30 knots and links that show either bilateral or two-fold rotational symmetries about all three principal axes of intertia after being brought into a minimal energy conformation (for the EMD energy).
This data is from my dissertation.
Viewed along principal axis with smallest eigenvalue | Viewed along principal axis with intermediate eigenvalue | Viewed along principal axis with largest eigenvalue |
