Transversely Non Simple Knots

چکیده
By proving a connected sum formula for the Legendrian invariant λ+ in knot Floer homology we exhibit infinitely many transversely non simple knots. Moreover we construct knots admitting many non-isotopic transverse representatives with equal selflinking number.

Cabling and Transverse Simplicity
We study Legendrian knots in a cabled knot type. Specifically, given a topological knot type K, we analyze the Legendrian knots in knot types obtained from K by cabling, in terms of Legendrian knots in the knot type K. As a corollary of this analysis, we show that the (2, 3)-cable of the (2, 3)-torus knot is not transversely simple and moreover classify the transverse knots in this knot type. T...
متن کاملAn Atlas of Legendrian Knots
We present an atlas of Legendrian knots in standard contact three-space. This gives a conjectural Legendrian classification for all knots with arc index at most 9, including alternating knots through 7 crossings and nonalternating knots through 9 crossings. Our method involves a computer search of grid diagrams and applies to transverse knots as well. The atlas incorporates a number of new, sma...
متن کاملTransverse Knots Distinguished by Knot Floer Homology
We exhibit pairs of transverse knots with the same self-linking number that are not transversely isotopic, using the recently defined knot Floer homology invariant for transverse knots and some algebraic refinements.
متن کاملBraiding Knots in Contact 3-manifolds
We show that a transverse link in a contact structure supported by an open book decomposition can be transversely braided. We also generalize Markov’s theorem on when the closures of two braids represent (transversely) isotopic links.
متن کاملClassification of Legendrian Knots and Links
The aim of this paper is to use computer program to generate and classify Legendrian knots and links. Modifying the algorithm in [11], we write a program in Java to generate all grid diagrams of up to size 10. Since classification of Legendrian links up to Legendrian isotopy is equivalent to grid diagrams modulo a set of Cromwell moves including translation, commutation and X:NE,X:SW (de)stabil...
