4 Great circle links and virtually fibered knots
نویسنده
چکیده
We show that all two-bridge knot and link complements are virtually fibered. We also show that spherical Montesinos knot and link complements are virtually fibered. This is accomplished by showing that such knot complements are finitely covered by great circle link complements.

Let M be a closed oriented 3-manifold such that S 1 × M admits a symplectic structure ω. The goal of this paper is to show that M is a fiber bundle over S 1. The basic idea is to use the obvious S 1-action on S 1 × M by rotating the first factor of S 1 × M , and one of the key steps is to show that the S 1-action on S 1 × M is actually symplectic with respect to a symplectic form cohomologous t...

Let M be a closed oriented 3-manifold such that S 1 × M admits a symplectic structure ω. The goal of this paper is to show that M is a fiber bundle over S 1. The basic idea is to use a naturally defined S 1-action on S 1 × M by rotating the first factor of S 1 × M , and one of the key steps is to show that the S 1-action on S 1 ×M is actually symplectic with respect to a symplectic form cohomol...

We realize a given (monic) Alexander polynomial by a (fibered) hyperbolic arborescent knot and link of any number of components, and by infinitely many such links of at least 4 components. As a consequence, a Mahler measure minimizing polynomial, if it exists, is realized as the Alexander polynomial of a fibered hyperbolic link of at least 2 components. For given polynomial, we give also an upp...
متن کاملKnot Adjacency and Fibering
It is known that the Alexander polynomial detects fibered knots and 3-manifolds that fiber over the circle. In this note, we show that when the Alexander polynomial becomes inconclusive, the notion of knot adjacency can be used to obtain obstructions to fibering of knots and of 3-manifolds. As an application, given a fibered knot K′, we construct infinitely many non-fibered knots that share the...
متن کاملHigher Degree Knot Adjacency as Obstruction to Fibering
It is know that the Alexander polynomial detects fibered knots and 3-manifolds that fiber over the circle. In this note, we show that when the Alexander polynomial becomes inconclusive, the notion of “knot adjacency”, studied in [KL], can be used to obtain obstructions to fibering of knots and of 3-manifolds. As an application, given a fibered knot K′, we construct infinitely many non-fibered k...
