Constructing many-twist Möbius bands with small aspect ratios
This paper presents a construction of a folded paper ribbon knot that provides a constant upper bound on the infimal aspect ratio for paper Möbius bands and annuli with arbitrarily many half-twists. In particular, the construction shows that paper Möbius bands and annuli with any number of half-twis...

| Summary: | This paper presents a construction of a folded paper ribbon knot that provides a constant upper bound on the infimal aspect ratio for paper Möbius bands and annuli with arbitrarily many half-twists. In particular, the construction shows that paper Möbius bands and annuli with any number of half-twists can be embedded with aspect ratio less than 6. |
