Let $K$ be a knot in the $3$ -sphere $S^{3}$ , and $Δ$ a disk in $S^{3}$ meeting $K$ transversely in the interior. For non-triviality we assume that $| Δ \cap K | \geq 2$ over all isotopies of $K$ in $S^{3} - \partial Δ$ . Let $K_{Δ, n}$ ( $\subset S^{3}$ ) be a knot obtained from $K$ by $n$ twistings along the disk $Δ$ . If the original knot is unknotted in $S^{3}$ , we call $K_{Δ, n}$ a . We describe for which pair $(K, Δ)$ and an integer $n$ , the twisted knot $K_{Δ, n}$ is a torus knot, a satellite knot or a hyperbolic knot.

We formulate general boundary conditions for a labelling of vertices of a triangulation of a polyhedron by vectors to assure the existence of a balanced simplex. The condition is not for each vertex separately, but for a set of vertices of each boundary simplex. This allows us to formulate a theorem, which is more general than the Sperner lemma and theorems of Shapley; Idzik and Junosza-Szaniawski; van der Laan, Talman and Yang. A generalization of the Poincaré-Miranda theorem is also...

An equivalence criterion for 3-manifolds.

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

Similarity:

Within geometric topology of 3-manifolds (with or without boundary), a representation theory exists, which makes use of 4-coloured graphs. Aim of this paper is to translate the homeomorphism problem for the represented manifolds into an equivalence problem for 4-coloured graphs, by means of a finite number of graph-moves, called dipole moves. Moreover, interesting consequences are obtained, which are related with the same problem in the n-dimensional setting.
