Knots on a positive template have a bounded number of prime factors

چکیده

Templates are branched 2–manifolds with semi-flows used to model “chaotic” hyperbolic invariant sets of flows on 3–manifolds. Knotted orbits on a template correspond to those in the original flow. Birman and Williams conjectured that for any given template the number of prime factors of the knots realized would be bounded. We prove a special case when the template is positive; the general case is now known to be false. AMS Classification 37D45; 57M25

Factoring Families of Positive Knots on Lorenz-like Templates

We show that for m and n positive, composite closed orbits realized on the Lorenz-like template L(m, n) have two prime factors, each a torus knot; and that composite closed orbits on L(−1,−1) have either two for three prime factors, two of which are torus knots.

Prime Decomposition of Knots in Lorenz-like Templates

Abstract. In [7] R. F. Williams showed that all knots in the Lorenz template are prime. His proof included the cases where any number of positive twists were added to one of the template’s branches. However [7] does give an example of a composite knot in a template with a single negative twist. Below we will show that in all the negative cases composite knots do exist, and give a mechanism for ...

Ultra and Involution Ideals in $BCK$-algebras

In this paper, we define the notions of ultra and involution ideals in $BCK$-algebras. Then we get the relation among them and other ideals as (positive) implicative, associative, commutative and prime ideals. Specially, we show that in a bounded implicative $BCK$-algebra, any involution ideal is a positive implicative ideal and in a bounded positive implicative lower $BCK$-semilattice, the not...

On a Proof of the Goldbach Conjecture and the Twin Prime Conjecture

In this paper we use the connected sum operation on knots to show that there is a one-to-one relation between knots and numbers. In this relation prime knots are bijectively assigned with prime numbers such that the prime number 2 corresponds to the trefoil knot. From this relation we have a classification table of knots where knots are one-to-one assigned with numbers. Further this assignment ...
