Dehn surgery, homology and hyperbolic volume [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
If a closed, orientable hyperbolic 3‐manifold M has volume at most 1.22 then H1.MIZp/ has dimension at most 2 for every prime p⁄ 2;7, and H1.MIZ2/ and H1.MIZ7/ have dimension at most 3. The proof combines several deep results about hyperbolic 3‐manifolds.

The classification of rational subtangle replacements between rational tangles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A natural generalization of a crossing change is a rational subtangle replacement (RSR). We characterize the fundamental situation of the rational tangles obtained from a given rational tangle via RSR, building on work of Berge and Gabai, and determine ...

A Jones polynomial for braid-like isotopies of oriented links and its categorification, Algebr

open access: yes, 2016
A braid-like isotopy for links in 3–space is an isotopy which uses only those Reidemeister moves which occur in isotopies of braids. We define a refined Jones polynomial and its corresponding Khovanov homology which are, in general, only invariant under ...

Polynomials and Homotopy of Virtual Knot Diagrams

open access: yes, 2017
. If a virtual knot diagram can be transformed to another virtual one by a finite sequence of crossing changes, Reidemeister moves and virtual moves then the two virtual knot diagrams are said to be homotopic . There are infinitely many homotopy classes of

©Hindawi Publishing Corp. ON THE REIDEMEISTER TORSION OF RATIONAL HOMOLOGY SPHERES

open access: yes, 2000
. We prove that the modZ reduction of the Reidemeister torsion of a rational homology 3-sphere is naturally a Q/Z-valued quadratic function uniquely determined by a Q/Z-constant and the linking form. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. Primary 57M27,

Knot Floer homology in cyclic branched covers

open access: yes, 2006
In this paper, we introduce a sequence of invariants of a knot K in S 3: the knot Floer homology groups 1HFK. † m.K/I eK; i / of the preimage of K in the m–fold cyclic branched cover over K. We exhibit 1HFK.

On knot Floer homology and cabling

open access: yes, 2005
This paper is devoted to the study of the knot Floer homology groups ĤFK(S3,K2,n), where K2,n denotes the (2, n) cable of an arbitrary knot, K. It is shown that for sufficiently large |n|, the Floer homology of the cabled knot depends only on the ...
