Rational Tangle Fibration
Here’s a couple of rational tangles with what one might consider a fibration. They’re actually homeomorphic. One’s got an extra half twist to it.
Through the double branched cover, we get the fibration of the solid torus by disks.
Here’s a few more views of these.
Simple as they are, there’s a pleasant rhythm.
There are a couple more on the Flickr (just click any of these pics). You have to view the “original” size for the gifs to animate.
