Knots in Collapsible and Non-Collapsible Balls

We construct the first explicit example of a simplicial 3-ball B15,66 that is not collapsible. It has only 15 vertices. We exhibit a second 3-ball B12,38 with 12 vertices that is collapsible and not shellable, but evasive. Finally, we present the first explicit triangulation of a 3-sphere S18,125 (with only 18 vertices) that is not locally constructible. All these examples are based on knotted ...
