How to tie a tight knot around my cable?

51 Views Asked by At

I would like to tie my new connector to my cable tightly using the provided string.

This is what the untied knot and the the tied knot look like; unfortunately, the adaptor can still slip and slide around the cable since the knot is loose.

  • What type of topological problem is this?
  • And how would it be asked mathematically?
