Abstract

Every (1, 1)-knot is represented by a 4-tuple of integers (a, b, c, r), where a > 0, b $\geq$ 0, c $\geq$ 0, d = 2a+b+c, $r\;{\in}\;\mathbb{Z}_d$, and it is well known that all 2-bridge knots and torus knots are (1, 1)-knots. In this paper, we describe some conditions for 4-tuples which determine 2-bridge knots and determine all 4-tuples representing any given 2-bridge knot.
