چکیده
It has been conjectured that for knots K and K′ in S3, w(K#K′) = w(K)+w(K′)−2. In [7], Scharlemann and Thompson proposed potential counterexamples to this conjecture. For every n, they proposed a family of knots {Kn i } for which they conjectured that w(Bn#Kn i ) = w(Kn i ) where Bn is a bridge number n knot. We show that for n > 2 none of the knots in {Kn i } produces such counterexamples.

Additivity of maps preserving Jordan $eta_{ast}$-products on $C^{*}$-algebras
Let $mathcal{A}$ and $mathcal{B}$ be two $C^{*}$-algebras such that $mathcal{B}$ is prime. In this paper, we investigate the additivity of maps $Phi$ from $mathcal{A}$ onto $mathcal{B}$ that are bijective, unital and satisfy $Phi(AP+eta PA^{*})=Phi(A)Phi(P)+eta Phi(P)Phi(A)^{*},$ for all $Ainmathcal{A}$ and $Pin{P_{1},I_{mathcal{A}}-P_{1}}$ where $P_{1}$ is a nontrivial projection in $mathcal{A...
