Vassiliev Invariants for Torus Knots

Vassiliev invariants up to order six for arbitrary torus knots {n,m}, with n and m coprime integers, are computed. These invariants are polynomials in n and m whose degree coincide with their order. Furthermore, they turn out to be integer-valued in a normalization previously proposed by the authors. ⋆ e-mail: [email protected]

Characterizing slopes for torus knots

A slope p q is called a characterizing slope for a given knot K0 in S if whenever the p q –surgery on a knot K in S is homeomorphic to the p q –surgery on K0 via an orientation preserving homeomorphism, then K D K0 . In this paper we try to find characterizing slopes for torus knots Tr;s . We show that any slope p q which is larger than the number 30.r 1/.s 1/=67 is a characterizing slope for T...

Unknotting Sequences for Torus Knots

The unknotting number of a knot is bounded from below by its slice genus. It is a well-known fact that the genera and unknotting numbers of torus knots coincide. In this note we characterize quasipositive knots for which the genus bound is sharp: the slice genus of a quasipositive knot equals its unknotting number, if and only if the given knot appears in an unknotting sequence of a torus knot.

Slice and Gordian Numbers of Track Knots

We present a class of knots associated with labelled generic immersions of intervals into the plane and compute their Gordian numbers and 4-dimensional invariants. At least 10% of the knots in Rolfsen’s table belong to this class of knots. We call them track knots. They are contained in the class of quasipositive knots. In this connection, we classify quasipositive knots and strongly quasiposit...

On iterated torus knots and transversal knots

A knot type is exchange reducible if an arbitrary closed n{braid representative K of K can be changed to a closed braid of minimum braid index nmin(K) by a nite sequence of braid isotopies, exchange moves and {destabilizations. (See Figure 1). In the manuscript [6] a transversal knot in the standard contact structure for S3 is de ned to be transversally simple if it is characterized up to trans...
