Lens space surgeries and L-space homology spheres
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe necessary and sufficient conditions for a knot in an L-space to have an L-space homology sphere surgery. We use these conditions to reformulate a conjecture of Berge about which knots in S admit lens space surgeries.

Lens Spaces Given from L-Space Homology 3-Spheres
We consider the problem when lens spaces are given from homology spheres, and demonstrate that many lens spaces are obtained from L-space homology sphere which the correction term d(Y ) is equal to 2. We show an inequality of slope and genus when Y is L-space and Yp(K) is lens space. 1 2
متن کاملOn Knot Floer Homology and Lens Space Surgeries
In an earlier paper, we used the absolute grading on Heegaard Floer homology HF to give restrictions on knots in S which admit lens space surgeries. The aim of the present article is to exhibit stronger restrictions on such knots, arising from knot Floer homology. One consequence is that all the non-zero coefficients of the Alexander polynomial of such a knot are ±1. This information in turn ca...
متن کاملHomology lens spaces and Dehn surgery on homology spheres
A homology lens space is a closed 3-manifold with Z-homology groups isomorphic to those of a lens space. A useful theorem found in [Fu] states that a homology lens space M3 may be obtained by an (n/1)-Dehn surgery on a homology 3-sphere if and only if the linking form of M3 is equivalent to (1/n). In this note we generalize this result to cover all homology lens spaces, and in the process offer...
متن کاملOn the non-existence of L-space surgery structure
We exhibit homology spheres which never yield any lens spaces by integral Dehn surgery by using Ozsváth and Szabó’s contact invariant.
متن کاملGrid Diagrams for Lens Spaces and Combinatorial Knot Floer Homology
Similar to knots in S, any knot in a lens space has a grid diagram from which one can combinatorially compute all of its knot Floer homology invariants. We give an explicit description of the generators, differentials, and rational Maslov and Alexander gradings in terms of combinatorial data on the grid diagram. Motivated by existing results for the Floer homology of knots in S and the similari...
