Studies of distance one surgeries on the lens space $L(p,1)$

Abstract

In this paper, we study distance one surgeries between lens spaces $L(p,1)$ with $p\ge 5$ prime and lens spaces $L(n,1)$ for $n\in \mathbb{Z}$ and band surgeries from $T(2,p)$ to $T(2,n)$. In particular, we prove that $L(n,1)$ is obtained by a distance one surgery from $L(5,1)$ only if $n=\pm 1$, $4$, $\pm 5$, $6$ or $\pm 9$, and $L(n,1)$ is obtained by a distance one surgery from $L(7,1)$ if and only if $n=\pm 1$, $3$, $6$, $7$, $8$ or $11$.
