Description

<jats:p> We show that graphs of the form G <jats:sub>*</jats:sub> K<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> are intrinsically knotted if and only if G is nonplanar. This can be extended to show that G <jats:sub>*</jats:sub> K<jats:sub>5m+1</jats:sub> is intrinsically (m + 2)-linked when G is nonplanar. We also apply this result to classify all complete n-partite graphs with respect to intrinsic knotting and show that this family does not produce any new minor-minimal examples. Finally, we categorize all minor-minimal intrinsically knotted graphs on 8 or fewer vertices. </jats:p>
