Twisted Link Theory
We introduce stable equivalence classes of oriented links in orientable three-manifolds that are orientation I -bundles over closed but not necessarily orientable surfaces. We call these twisted links, and show that they subsume the virtual knots introduced by L. Kauffman, and the projective links introduced by Yu. Drobotukhina. We show that these links have unique minimal genus three-manifolds...

متن کاملTwisted bundles and twisted K-theory
Many papers have been devoted recently to twisted K-theory as originally defined in [15] and [29]. See for instance the references [2], [23] and the very accessible paper [30]. We offer here a more direct approach based on the notion of “twisted vector bundles”. This is not an entirely new idea, since we find it in [4], [6], [7], [8] and [9] for instance, under different names and from various ...
متن کاملEssential Twisted Surfaces in Alternating Link Complements
Checkerboard surfaces in alternating link complements are used frequently to determine information about the link. However, when many crossings are added to a single twist region of a link diagram, the geometry of the link complement stabilizes (approaches a geometric limit), but a corresponding checkerboard surface increases in complexity with crossing number. In this paper, we generalize chec...
متن کاملTwisted Torsion Invariants and Link Concordance
The twisted torsion of a 3-manifold is well-known to be zero whenever the corresponding twisted Alexander module is non-torsion. Under mild extra assumptions we introduce a new twisted torsion invariant which is always non-zero. We show how this torsion invariant relates to the twisted intersection form of a bounding 4-manifold, generalizing a theorem of Milnor to the non-acyclic case. Using th...
