Let Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \mathcal{K}} denote the space of oriented knots in an oriented $\mathbb {R} ^{3}$ and $A$ be any abelian group. Then, given any invariant $V:{\mathcal {K}}\rightarrow A$, we can extend $V$ to $1$-singular knots (i.e. knots with one double point) by setting:

This is analogous to taking the first derivative.
