We present two constructions of random knots. The first gives piecewise linear knots. It has a parameter (which can be a function), which allows one some control of the expected shape of the knot. The second construction uses Fourier series to construct smooth random knots. We then discuss preliminary notions of the interplay between random knots and the energy of a knot.

In this paper, we consider knotting of Gaussian random polygons in 3-space. A Gaussian random polygon is a piecewise linear circle with n edges in which the length of the edges follows a Gaussian distribution. We prove a continuum version of Kesten's Pattern Theorem for these polygons, and use this to prove that the probability that a Gaussian random polygon of n edges in 3-space is knotted tends to one exponentially rapidly as n tends to infinity. We study the properties of Gaussian random knots, and prove that the entanglement complexity of Gaussian random knots gets arbitrarily large as n tends to infinity. We also prove that almost all Gaussian random knots are chiral.
