Study shows certain knots can't be sliced using 2-fold branched covers.
Study shows knots with coprime polynomials can't be concordant.
We give a sufficient condition under which vanishing property of Cochran-Orr-Teichner knot concordance obstructions splits under connected sum. The condition is described in terms of self-annihilating submodules with respect to higher-order Blanchfield linking forms. This extends results of Levine and the authors on di…
