  bibo_abstract:
  - The writhing number measures the global geometry of a closed space curve or knot.
    We show that this measure is related to the average winding number of its Gauss
    map. Using this relationship, we give an algorithm for computing the writhing
    number for a polygonal knot with n edges in time roughly proportional to n(1.6).
    We also implement a different, simple algorithm and provide experimental evidence
    for its practical efficiency.@eng
