The Miller Institute knot is the 6-crossing prime knot 
. It is alternating, chiral, and invertible.
A knot diagram of its laevo form is illustrated above, which is implemented in the
Wolfram Language as KnotData[
6, 2
].
The knot is so-named because it appears on the logo of the Adolph C. and Mary Sprague Miller Institute for Basic Research in Science at the University of California, Berkeley (although, as can be seen in the logo, the Miller Institute's knot actually has dextro chirality).
The knot has braid word 
. It has Arf
invariant 1 and is not amphichiral, although
it is invertible.
The Alexander polynomial 
, BLM/Ho polynomial 
, Conway
polynomial 
,
HOMFLY polynomial 
, and Jones polynomial 
of the Miller Institute knot are
