1. The oldest example to our knowledge is the retrograde canon "Mafinest mon commencement" written by the medieval composer Guillaume de Machaut (1300-1377).
2. Slonimsky, N. "The Moebius Strip-Tease". A perpetual canon written on a Möbius band to be revolved around the singer's head, which reads as follows: Ach! Professor Möbius, glörious Möbius / Ach, we love your topological, / And, ach, so logical strip! / One-sided inside and two-sided outside! / Ach! euphörius, glörius Möbius Strip-Tease!

5. J. B. Listing was born in 1808 in Frankfurt, received his doctorate in 1834 with Carl Friedrich Gauss, and was appointed professor of physics in Göttingen in 1839. He made a remarkable range of contributions in different areas and coined a number of terms such as topology, entropic phenomena, nodal points, etc. His career progressed in a straightforward manner until he married Pauline Elvers in 1846. The couple immediately had financial problems, and on one occasion they were saved from bankruptcy by a friend in the Hannover ministry. Listing's standing in the scientific community was harmed by these problems, and he certainly received less recognition for his scientific achievements because of it. Breitenberger, E.; Listing, J.

15. Qubits the (logic states in a hypothetical quantum computer) must be addressable through external signals; however, they must not interact with the environment to prevent decoherence. Topological qubits were proposed as a superior implementation of quantum information. For a practical implementation, the molecules probably are too large and they lack an efficient isomerization mechanism between Möbius and non-Möbius. Ioffe, L. B.; Feigl'man, M.
