Abstract

This article summarizes an investigation led by the question: which is the place of the imaginary consistency in the Borromean knot?

For the development of this, there were revised different approaches to libido, drive, and other elements of the imaginary such as the optic experiences and the Borromean knot. This last one, topologic figure that illustrates how the different orders articulate, shows how they interconnect with each other around a central element which has an imaginary face and also the consistency of a concept: object a.
