Antoine's Necklace or How to Keep a Necklace from Falling Apart.
Brechner, Beverly L.; Mayer, John C.
College Mathematics Journal, v19 n4 p306-20 Sep 1988
A construction in geometric topology is presented for an imaginary string of beads, but without the string, forming a necklace that cannot fall apart. Some well-known applications and generalizations of Antoine's Necklace are provided, with all examples subsets of Euclidean spaces. (MNS)
