Abstract:

A twisted torus knot is a torus knot with some consecutive strands twisted. More precisely, a twisted torus knot [Formula: see text] is a torus knot [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] consecutive strands [Formula: see text] times fully twisted. We determine which twisted torus knots [Formula: see text] are a torus knot.

Abstract:

Abstract A twisted torus knot is obtained from a torus knot by performing full twists on some adjacent strands of the torus knot. Morimoto constructed infinitely many twisted torus knots which are composite knots and he conjectured that his knots are all of composite twisted torus knots. We show that his conjecture is almost true by giving a complete list of such twisted torus knots.

Abstract:

A twisted torus knot is a knot obtained from a torus knot by twisting adjacent strands by full twists. The twisted torus knots lie in [Formula: see text], the genus 2 Heegaard surface for [Formula: see text]. Primitive/primitive and primitive/Seifert knots lie in [Formula: see text] in a particular way. Dean gives sufficient conditions for the parameters of the twisted torus knots to ensure they are primitive/primitive or primitive/Seifert. Using Dean’s conditions, Doleshal shows that there are infinitely many twisted torus knots that are fibered and that there are twisted torus knots with distinct primitive/Seifert representatives with the same slope in [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we extend Doleshal’s results to show there is a four parameter family of positive twisted torus knots. Additionally, we provide new examples of twisted torus knots with distinct representatives with the same surface slope in [Formula: see text].

Abstract:

AbstractThe unknotting number of a knot is bounded from below by its slice genus. It is a well-known fact that the genera and unknotting numbers of torus knots coincide. In this paper we characterize quasipositive knots for which the genus bound is sharp: the slice genus of a quasipositive knot equals its unknotting number, if and only if the given knot appears in an unknotting sequence of a torus knot.

Abstract:

We consider a surface link in the 4-space which can be presented by a simple branched covering over the standard torus, which we call a torus-covering link. Torus-covering links include spun T2-knots and turned spun T2-knots. In this paper we braid a torus-covering link over the standard 2-sphere. This gives an upper estimate of the braid index of a torus-covering link. In particular we show that the turned spun T2-knot of the torus (2, p)-knot has the braid index four.

Abstract:

The AJ conjecture, formulated by Garoufalidis, relates the A-polynomial and the colored Jones polynomial of a knot in the 3-sphere. It has been confirmed for all torus knots, some classes of two-bridge knots and pretzel knots, and most cable knots over torus knots. The strong AJ conjecture, formulated by Sikora, relates the A-ideal and the colored Jones polynomial of a knot. It was confirmed for all torus knots. In this paper we confirm the strong AJ conjecture for most cable knots over torus knots.

Our computation uses only the basic long exact sequence in knot homology and Rasmussen's result on the triviality of the embedded surface invariant.

Abstract:

A 1-bridge torus knot in a 3-manifold of genus ≤ 1 is a knot drawn on a Heegaard torus with one bridge. We give two types of normal forms to parameterize the family of 1-bridge torus knots that are similar to the Schubert's normal form and the Conway's normal form for 2-bridge knots. For a given Schubert's normal form we give algorithms to determine the number of components and to compute the fundamental group of the complement when the normal form determines a knot. We also give a description of the double branched cover of an ambient 3-manifold branched along a 1-bridge torus knot by using its Conway's normal form and obtain an explicit formula for the first homology of the double cover.

Abstract:

The goal of this paper is twofold. First, we find a natural home for the double affine Hecke algebras (DAHA) in the physics of BPS states. Second, we introduce new invariants of torus knots and links called hyperpolynomials that address the “problem of negative coefficients” often encountered in DAHA-based approaches to homological invariants of torus knots and links. Furthermore, from the physics of BPS states and the spectra of singularities associated with Landau–Ginzburg potentials, we also describe a rich structure of differentials that act on homological knot invariants for exceptional groups and uniquely determine the latter for torus knots.

Abstract:

It is known that a knot/link can be nullified, i.e. can be made into the trivial knot/link, by smoothing some crossings in a projection diagram of the knot/link. The minimum number of such crossings to be smoothed in order to nullify the knot/link is called the nullification number. In this paper we investigate the nullification numbers of a particular knot family, namely the family of torus knots and links.

Abstract:

It is known that any surface knot can be transformed to an unknotted surface knot or a surface knot which has a diagram with no triple points by a finite number of 1-handle additions. The minimum number of such 1-handles is called the unknotting number or the triple point cancelling number, respectively. In this paper, we give upper bounds and lower bounds of unknotting numbers and triple point cancelling numbers of torus-covering knots, which are surface knots in the form of coverings over the standard torus T. Upper bounds are given by using m-charts on T presenting torus-covering knots, and lower bounds are given by using quandle colorings and quandle cocycle invariants.

The stick index of a knot K is defined to be the least number of line segments needed to construct a polygonal embedding of K. We define the projection stick index of K to be the least number of line segments in any projection of a polygonal embedding of K. In this paper, we establish bounds on the projection stick index for various torus knots. We then show that the stick index of a (p, 2p + 1)-torus knot is 4p, and the projection stick index is 2p + 1. This provides examples of knots such that the projection stick index is one greater than half the stick index. We show that for all other torus knots for which the stick index is known, the projection stick index is larger than this. We conjecture that a projection stick index of half the stick index is unattainable for any knot.

A spun knotted torus in the 4-sphere is formed by rigidly sweeping a knotted curve along a circle. Alternately, as the knotted curve is swept along the circle we could give it a number of full turns (Dehn twists). We show the resulting knotted torus depends only on the knotted curve and whether the number of turns is even or odd. The even and odd turned spun tori have nondiffeomorphic complements. This is generalized in some cases to include twist spun turned torus knots.

In this paper we resolve some conjectures concerning positive braid knots and almost alternating torus knots.

Also, we generalize this result to show that the same is true in the case of Khovanov–Rozansky homology (sl(n) link homology) for any positive integer n. Moreover, by using the Khovanov homology theory, we prove the classical knot theory conjecture by Adams, that the only almost alternating torus knots are T3, 4 and T3, 5.

Abstract:

A twisted torus knot [Formula: see text] is a torus knot [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] adjacent strands twisted fully [Formula: see text] times. In this paper, we determine the braid index of the knot [Formula: see text] when the parameters [Formula: see text] satisfy [Formula: see text]. If the last parameter [Formula: see text] additionally satisfies [Formula: see text], then we also determine the parameters [Formula: see text] for which [Formula: see text] is a torus knot.

Abstract:

We compare the values of the nonorientable three genus (or, crosscap number) and the nonorientable four genus of torus knots. In particular, let [Formula: see text] be any torus knot with [Formula: see text] even and [Formula: see text] odd. The difference between these two invariants on [Formula: see text] is at least [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. Hence, the difference between the two invariants on torus knots [Formula: see text] grows arbitrarily large for any fixed odd [Formula: see text], as [Formula: see text] ranges over values of a fixed congruence class modulo [Formula: see text]. This contrasts with the orientable setting. Seifert proved that the orientable three genus of the torus knot [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text], and Kronheimer and Mrowka later proved that the orientable four genus of [Formula: see text] is also this same value.

Abstract:

A comprehensive study of geometric and topological properties of torus knots and unknots is presented. Torus knots/unknots are particularly symmetric, closed, space curves, that wrap the surface of a mathematical torus a number of times in the longitudinal and meridian direction. By using a standard parametrization, new results on local and global properties are found. In particular, we demonstrate the existence of inflection points for a given critical aspect ratio, determine the location and prescribe the regularization condition to remove the local singularity associated with torsion. Since to first approximation total length grows linearly with the number of coils, its nondimensional counterpart is proportional to the topological crossing number of the knot type. We analyze several global geometric quantities, such as total curvature, writhing number, total torsion, and geometric ‘energies’ given by total squared curvature and torsion, in relation to knot complexity measured by the winding number. We conclude with a brief presentation of research topics, where geometric and topological information on torus knots/unknots finds useful application.

Abstract:

A knot in the 3-sphere is called an L-space knot if it admits a nontrivial Dehn surgery yielding an L-space. Like torus knots and Berge knots, many known L-space knots admit a Seifert fibered L-space surgery. We give a concrete example of a hyperbolic L-space knot which has no exceptional surgeries, in particular, no Seifert fibered surgeries.

Abstract:

We investigate properties of spatial graphs on the standard torus. It is known that nontrivial embeddings of planar graphs in the torus contain a nontrivial knot or a nonsplit link due to [2, 3]. Building on this and using the chirality of torus knots and links [9, 10], we prove that the nontrivial embeddings of simple 3-connected planar graphs in the standard torus are chiral. For the case that the spatial graph contains a nontrivial knot, the statement was shown by Castle et al. [5]. We give an alternative proof using minors instead of the Euler characteristic. To prove the case in which the graph embedding contains a nonsplit link, we show the chirality of Hopf ladders with at least three rungs, thus generalizing a theorem of Simon [12].

Abstract:

We show that a knot has a non-left-orderable surgery if the knot group admits a generalized Baumslag–Solitar relator and satisfies certain conditions on a longitude of the knot. As an application, it is shown that certain positively twisted torus knots admit non-left-orderable surgeries.

Abstract:

For a polygonal knot K, it is shown that a tube of radius R(K), the polygonal thickness radius, is an embedded torus. Given a thick configuration K, perturbations of size r < R(K) define satellite structures, or local knotting. We explore knotting within these tubes both theoretically and numerically. We provide bounds on perturbation radii for which one can obtain small trefoil and figure-eight summands and use Monte Carlo simulations to estimate the relative probabilities of these structures as a function of the number of edges.

Abstract:

In this paper, dedicated to Prof. Lou Kauffman, we determine the Thurston’s geometry possesed by any Seifert fibered conemanifold structure in a Seifert manifold with orbit space [Formula: see text] and no more than three exceptional fibers, whose singular set, composed by fibers, has at most three components which can include exceptional or general fibers (the total number of exceptional and singular fibers is less than or equal to three). We also give the method to obtain the holonomy of that structure. We apply these results to three families of Seifert manifolds, namely, spherical, Nil manifolds and manifolds obtained by Dehn surgery on a torus knot [Formula: see text]. As a consequence we generalize to all torus knots the results obtained in [Geometric conemanifolds structures on [Formula: see text], the result of [Formula: see text] surgery in the left-handed trefoil knot [Formula: see text], J. Knot Theory Ramifications 24(12) (2015), Article ID: 1550057, 38pp., doi: 10.1142/S0218216515500571] for the case of the left handle trefoil knot. We associate a plot to each torus knot for the different geometries, in the spirit of Thurston.

Region crossing change for a knot or a proper link is an unknotting operation. In this paper, we provide a sharp upper bound on the region unknotting number for a large class of torus knots and proper links. Also, we discuss conditions on torus links to be proper.
