Seifert fibered surgery on Montesinos knots
نویسنده
چکیده
Exceptional Dehn surgeries on arborescent knots have been classified except for Seifert fibered surgeries on Montesinos knots of length 3. There are infinitely many of them as it is known that 4n + 6 and 4n + 7 surgeries on a (−2, 3, 2n + 1) pretzel knot are Seifert fibered. It will be shown that there are only finitely many others. A list of 20 surgeries will be given and proved to be Seifert fibered. We conjecture that this is a complete list.

Immersed surfaces and Seifert fibered surgery on Montesinos knots
We will use immersed surfaces to study Seifert fibered surgery on Montesinos knots, and show that if 1 q1−1 + 1 q2−1 + 1 q3−1 ≤ 1 then a Montesinos knot K(p q1 , p2 q2 , p3 q3 ) admits no atoroidal Seifert fibered surgery.
متن کاملSmall Seifert fibered surgery on hyperbolic pretzel knots
The study of exceptional surgery on hyperbolic knots has been well developed over the last quarter century. One particularly well studied problem is that of exceptional surgery on arborescent knots, which include Montesinos knots and pretzel knots. Thanks to the positive solution to the Geometrization conjecture [Per03a, Per03b, Per03c], any exceptional surgery is either reducible, toroidal, or...
متن کاملSmall Seifert-fibered Dehn surgery on hyperbolic knots
In this paper, we define the primitive/Seifert-fibered property for a knot in S . If satisfied, the property ensures that the knot has a Dehn surgery that yields a small Seifert-fibered space (i.e. base S and three or fewer critical fibers). Next we describe the twisted torus knots, which provide an abundance of examples of primitive/Seifert-fibered knots. By analyzing the twisted torus knots, ...
متن کاملAll integral slopes can be Seifert fibered slopes for hyperbolic knots
Which slopes can or cannot appear as Seifert fibered slopes for hyperbolic knots in the 3-sphere S? It is conjectured that if r -surgery on a hyperbolic knot in S yields a Seifert fiber space, then r is an integer. We show that for each integer n ∈ Z, there exists a tunnel number one, hyperbolic knot Kn in S 3 such that n-surgery on Kn produces a small Seifert fiber space. AMS Classification 57...
متن کاملA Surgical Perspective on Quasi-alternating Links
We show that quasi-alternating links arise naturally when considering surgery on a strongly invertible L-space knot (that is, a knot that yields an L-space for some Dehn surgery). In particular, we show that for many known classes of L-space knots, every sufficiently large surgery may be realized as the two-fold branched cover of a quasi-alternating link. Consequently, there is considerable ove...
