Null-homotopic knots have Property R

چکیده

We prove that if $K$ is a nontrivial null-homotopic knot in closed oriented $3$--manfiold $Y$ such $Y-K$ does not have an $S^1\times S^2$ summand, then the zero surgery on summand. This generalizes result of Hom and Lidman, who proved case when irreducible rational homology sphere.

Codimension One Spheres Which Are Null Homotopic

Grove and Halperin [3] introduced a notion of taut immersions. Terng and Thorbergsson [5] give a slightly different definition and showed that taut immersions are a simultaneous generalization of taut immersions of manifolds into Euclidean spaces or spheres, and some interesting embeddings constructed by Bott and Samelson [1]. They go on to prove many theorems about such immersions. One particu...

9 There are non homotopic framed homotopies of long knots

Let M be the space of all, including singular, long knots in 3space and for which a fixed projection into the plane is an immersion. Let cl(Σ (1) iness) be the closure of the union of all singular knots in M with exactly one ordinary double point and such that the two resolutions represent the same (non singular) knot type. We call Σ (1) iness the inessential walls and we call Mess = M\ cl(Σ (1...

Fibered Knots and Property 2r

It is shown, using sutured manifold theory, that if there are any 2-component counterexamples to the Generalized Property R Conjecture, then any knot of least genus among components of such counterexamples is not a fibered knot. The general question of what fibered knots might appear as a component of such a counterexample is further considered; much can be said about the monodromy of the fiber...

All two dimensional links are null homotopic Arthur

We show that any number of disjointly embedded 2{spheres in 4{space can be pulled apart by a link homotopy, ie, by a motion in which the 2{spheres stay disjoint but are allowed to self-intersect. AMS Classi cation numbers Primary: 57Q45
