The base polyhedra for these polyknots and polylinks are the Johnson polyhedra as for example the pentagonal rotunda and the Roelofs pentagonal rotunda polyknot (Figure 1).

The local and global crossing numbers, and the Euler numbers for these Escher-Johnson polyknots and polylinks remain to be calculated. Examples of the Roelofs-Johnson polyknots and polylinks can be accessed via the links below.
