چکیده
Given a nitely presented group G and an epimorphism : G ! Z, constraints on the orders of automorphisms F : G ! G such that F = are obtained via symbolic dynamics. The techniques provide new obstructions to periodicity for knots and links.

Periodic Links and Augmented Groups
Given a finitely presented group G and an epimorphism χ : G→ Z, constraints on the orders of automorphisms F : G→ G such that χ ◦ F = χ are obtained via symbolic dynamics. The techniques provide new obstructions to periodicity for knots and links.
متن کاملTORSION NUMBERS OF AUGMENTED GROUPS with applications to knots and links
ABSTRACT. Torsion and Betti numbers for knots are special cases of more general invariants br and βr, respectively, associated to a finitely generated group G and epimorphism χ : G → Z. The sequence of Betti numbers is always periodic; under mild hypotheses about (G,χ), the sequence br satisfies a linear homogeneous recurrence relation with constant coefficients. Generally, br exhibits exponent...
متن کاملAn Introduction to Fully Augmented Links
In this article we summarize information on the class of fully augmented links. These links are geometrically explicit, and therefore provide a large class of examples of hyperbolic links for which geometric information can be computed.
متن کاملMeridians and Generalized Augmented Links
We show that in some sense, “most” knots have meridian of length strictly less than 4. We do so by finding geometric information on the cusp shapes of a class of links called generalized augmented links. Since any knot can be obtained by an explicit Dehn filling on one of these links, the geometric information on these links gives geometric information on new classes of knots and links.
