Hyperbolic Geometry of Multiply Twisted Knots
We investigate the geometry of hyperbolic knots and links whose diagrams have a high amount of twisting of multiple strands. We find information on volume and certain isotopy classes of geodesics for the complements of these links, based only on a diagram. The results are obtained by finding geometric information on generalized augmentations
متن کاملTwisted Alexander Polynomials of Hyperbolic Knots
We study a twisted Alexander polynomial naturally associated to a hyperbolic knot in an integer homology 3-sphere via a lift of the holonomy representation to SL(2,C). It is an unambiguous symmetric Laurent polynomial whose coefficients lie in the trace field of the knot. It contains information about genus, fibering, and chirality, and moreover is powerful enough to sometimes detect mutation. ...
متن کاملOn Multiply Twisted Knots That Are Seifert Fibered or Toroidal
We consider knots whose diagrams have a high amount of twisting of multiple strands. By encircling twists on multiple strands with unknotted curves, we obtain a link called a generalized augmented link. Dehn filling this link gives the original knot. We classify those generalized augmented links that are Seifert fibered, and give a torus decomposition for those that are toroidal. In particular,...
متن کاملPrimeness of Twisted Knots
Let V be a standardly embedded solid torus in S3 with a meridianpreferred longitude pair {p., X) and K a knot contained in V . We assume that K is unknotted in S3 . Let fn be an orientation-preserving homeomorphism of V which sends X to X + np. Then we get a twisted knot K„ = f„ {K) in SK Primeness of twisted knots is discussed and we prove : A twisted knot K„ is prime if \n\ > 5 . Moreover, {K...
متن کاملCosmetic Crossings of Twisted Knots
We prove that the property of admitting no cosmetic crossing changes is preserved under the operation of inserting full twists in the strings of closed braids and the operation of forming certain satellites of winding number zero. As a consequences of the main results, we prove the nugatory crossing conjecture for twisted fibered braids, for closed 3-braids and for Whitehead doubles of prime no...
