The Relations

The Reidemeister Move R3

The picture (with three sides of the shielding removed) is

In formulas, this is

.

Linearized and written in functional form, this becomes

The Syzygies

The "B around B" Syzygy

The functional form of this syzygy is

A Mathematica Verification

The following simulated Mathematica session proves that for our single relation and single syzygy, . Copy paste it into a live Mathematica session to see that it's right!
