TL;DR
This paper introduces flexible links and isotopy in projective space, providing a classification system that captures topological properties of real algebraic links through a novel interpretation of writhe.
Contribution
It defines flexible links and isotopy in projective space and classifies all flexible links up to isotopy using a new interpretation of writhe.

Abstract
In this paper we define and study flexible links and flexible isotopy in projective space. Flexible links are meant to capture the topological properties of real algebraic links. We classify all flexible links up to flexible isotopy using Ekholms interpretation of Viros encomplexed writhe.
