The Dealternating Number and the Alternation Number of a Closed 3-braid
نویسندگان
چکیده
We give an upper bound for the dealternating number of a closed 3-braid. As applications, we determine the dealternating numbers, the alternation numbers and the Turaev genera of some closed positive 3-braids. We also show that there exist infinitely many positive knots with any dealternating number (or any alternation number) and any braid index.

Alternation Numbers of Torus Knots with Small Braid Index
We calculate the alternation number of torus knots with braid index 4 and less. For the lower bound, we use the Upsilon-invariant recently introduced by Ozsváth, Stipsicz, and Szabó. For the upper bound, we use a known bound for braid index 3 and a new bound for braid index 4. Both bounds coincide, so that we obtain a sharp result.
متن کاملCounting Genus One Fibered Knots in Lens Spaces
The braid axis of a closed 3–braid lifts to a genus one fibered knot in the double cover of S branched over the closed braid. Every (null homologous) genus one fibered knot in a 3–manifold may be obtained in this way. Using this perspective we answer a question of Morimoto about the number of genus one fibered knots in lens spaces. We determine the number of genus one fibered knots up to homeom...
متن کاملSpatial modelling of zonality elements based on compositional nature of geochemical data using geostatistical approach: a case study of Baghqloom area, Iran
Due to the existence of a constant sum of constraints, the geochemical data is presented as the compositional data that has a closed number system. A closed number system is a dataset that includes several variables. The summation value of variables is constant, being equal to one. By calculating the correlation coefficient of a closed number system and comparing it with an open number system, ...
متن کاملA Characteristic-based Numerical Simulation of Water-titanium Dioxide Nano-fluid in Closed Domains
A new characteristic-based method is developed and used for solving the mixed and forced convection problems. The nano-fluid flow with heat transfer is simulated with a novel characteristic-based scheme in closed domains with different aspect ratios. For this purpose, a FORTRAN code has been written and developed. Water as a pure fluid and water-titanium dioxide as a nano-fluid were considered....
متن کاملExact Closed-Form Solution for Vibration Analysis of Truncated Conical and Tapered Beams Carrying Multiple Concentrated Masses
In this paper, an exact closed-form solution is presented for free vibration analysis of Euler-Bernoulli conical and tapered beams carrying any desired number of attached masses. The concentrated masses are modeled by Dirac’s delta functions which creates no need for implementation of compatibility conditions. The proposed technique explicitly provides frequency equation and corresponding mode ...
