Hyperbolic knots are not generic

Yury Belousov, Andrei Malyutin

Published 2019-08-16Version 1

We show that the proportion of hyperbolic knots among all of the prime knots of $n$ or fewer crossings does not converge to $1$ as $n$ approaches infinity. Moreover, we show that if $K$ is a nontrivial knot then the proportion of satellites of $K$ among all of the prime knots of $n$ or fewer crossings does not converge to $0$ as $n$ approaches infinity.
