Taut foliations of 3-manifolds and suspensions of S 1

David Gabai (1992)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

Let M be a compact oriented 3-manifold whose boundary contains a single torus P and let be a taut foliation on M whose restriction to M has a Reeb component. The main technical result of the paper, asserts that if N is obtained by Dehn filling P along any curve not parallel to the Reeb component, then N has a taut foliation.

Notes on tiled incompressible tori

Leonid Plachta (2012)

Similarity:

Let Θ denote the class of essential tori in a closed braid complement which admit a standard tiling in the sense of Birman and Menasco [Birman J.S., Menasco W.W., Special positions for essential tori in link complements, Topology, 1994, 33(3), 525–556]. Moreover, let R denote the class of thin tiled tori in the sense of Ng [Ng K.Y., Essential tori in link complements, J. Knot Theory Ramifications, 1998, 7(2), 205–216]. We define the subclass B ⊂ Θ of typical tiled tori and show that...

An unknotting theorem for tori in 4-dimensional spheres.

Akiko Shima (1998)

Revista Matemática Complutense

Similarity:

Let T be a torus in S4 and T* a projection of T. If the singular set Gamma(T*) consists of one disjoint simple closed curve, then T can be moved to the standard position by an ambient isotopy of S4.
