Persistently Laminar Tangles

نویسنده

چکیده

We show how to build tangles T in a 3-ball with the property that any knot obtained by tangle sum with T has a persistent lamination in its exterior, and therefore has property P. The construction is based on an example of a persistent lamination in the exterior of the twist knot 61, due to Ulrich Oertel. We also show how the construction can be generalized to n-string tangles.

Persistently laminar branched surfaces

We define sink marks for branched complexes and find conditions for them to determine a branched surface structure. These will be used to construct branched surfaces in knot and tangle complements. We will extend Delman’s theorem and prove that a non 2-bridge Montesinos knot K has a persistently laminar branched surface unless it is equivalent to K(1/2q1, 1/q2, 1/q3, −1) for some positive integ...

Laminar and regional distributions of neurofibrillary tangles and neuritic plaques in Alzheimer's disease: a quantitative study of visual and auditory cortices.

The number of Thioflavine S-positive neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) and neuritic plaques (NP) was determined in visual and auditory cortical regions of 8 patients with Alzheimer's disease. On both a regional and laminar basis, NFT exhibited very distinctive and consistent distribution patterns. The mean (+/- SEM) number of NFT in a 250-micron-wide cortical traverse was very low in area 17, prima...

The prevalence of bovine viral diarrhea virus in persistently infected cows in industrial dairy herds in suburb of Mashhad- Iran

Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus (BVDV) is a Pestivirus of the Flaviviviridaefamily that infects cattle, and its widespread distribution can cause substantial economic losses worldwide. The aims of this study were: (1) to estimate the prevalence of animals persistently infected (PI) with BVDV in industrial dairy cattle herds in suburb of Mashhad- Iran; and (2) to compare the occurrence of persistent...

Vitamin E therapy prevents the accumulation of congophilic amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the hippocampus in a rat model of Alzheimer’s disease

Objective(s): Vitamin E may have beneficial effects on oxidative stress and Aβ-associated reactive oxygen species production in Alzheimer’s disease. But, the exact role of vitamin E as a treatment for Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis still needs to be studied. Hence, we examined the therapeutic effects of vitamin E on the density of congophilic amyloid plaques and neur...

Dehn Surgery on Arborescent Links 3

This paper studies Dehn surgery on a large class of links, called arborescent links. It will be shown that if an arborescent link L is suuciently complicated, in the sense that it is composed of at least 4 rational tangles T (p i =q i) with all q i > 2, and none of its length 2 tangles are of the form T (1=2q 1 ; 1=2q 2), then all complete surgeries on L produce Haken manifolds. The proof needs...
