Definitions of positive and negative crossings and the writhe of an oriented knot diagram.

Positive crossing: Failed to parse (unknown function "\overcrossing"): {\displaystyle \overcrossing}
Negative crossing: Failed to parse (unknown function "\undercrossing"): {\displaystyle \undercrossing}
The writhe of an oriented knot diagram is the sum of the signs of all the crossings in the diagram.
