Knotted Symmetric Graphs
For a knotted graph in S* we define the vertex constant group, a quotient of the fundamental group of the complement. For planar graphs the group is cyclic. For graphs with periodic symmetry the group is related to the fundamental group of the branched cover of S3 branched over knots contained in the quotient of the graph under the symmetry. These tools are used to demonstrate that a large fami...

For a knotted graph in S3 we define the vertex constant group, a quotient of the fundamental group of the complement. For planar graphs the group is cyclic. For graphs with periodic symmetry the group is related to the fundamental group of the branched cover of S3 branched over knots contained in the quotient of the graph under the symmetry. These tools are used to demonstrate that a large fami...
متن کاملMinimally Knotted Spatial Graphs are Totally Knotted
Applying Jaco’s Handle Addition Lemma, we give a condition for a 3-manifold to have an incompressible boundary. As an application, we show that the boundary of the exterior of a minimally knotted planar graph is incompressible.
متن کاملMore intrinsically knotted graphs
We demonstrate four intrinsically knotted graphs that do not contain each other, nor any previously known intrinsically knotted graph, as a minor.
متن کاملRoots of knotted graphs and orbifolds
Let G be a graph (1-dimensional CW complex) in a compact 3manifold M . Following [1], we will apply to the pair (M,G) certain simplification moves as long as possible. What we get is a root of (M,G). Our main result is that for any pair (M,G) the root exists and is unique. Similar results hold for graphs with colored edges and for 3-orbifolds, which can be viewed as graphs with specific colorin...
