7 results for non-characterizing

Certain torus knots have infinitely many slopes that do not uniquely identify them.

problem Identifying non-characterizing slopes for certain torus knots.
method Applying a condition from Baker and Motegi to show infinitely many non-characterizing slopes.
result The knots T2,2n+3#T2,2n+1T_{2,2n+3}\#T_{-2,2n+1} have infinitely many non-characterizing slopes.

A non-trivial slope rr on a knot KK in S3S^3 is called a characterizing slope if whenever the result of rr-surgery on a knot KK' is orientation preservingly homeomorphic to the result of rr-surgery on KK, then KK' is isotopic to KK. Ni and Zhang ask: for any hyperbolic knot KK, is a slope r=p/qr = p/q with $|p| +…

The study confirms conjectures about slopes of knots using knot Floer homology.

problem Verifying conjectures about non-integer characterizing slopes of knots.
method Using knot Floer homology, the study verifies conjectures for specific classes of knots.
result Almost all slopes are characterizing for many knots, and infinitely many for LL-space knots.
