Abstract

A topology for figural ambiguity (braid theory) is proposed which describes figure-figure, figure-ground, and figure-ground-figure ambiguities with the defming relations of the topology. The power of the topology is demonstrated by the classification of ambiguities and the revelation of new ambiguous forms.
