Heegaard splittings and virtually Haken Dehn filling
J. D. Masters, W. Menasco, X. Zhang
We use Heegaard splittings to give some examples of virtually Haken 3-manifolds.
Stabilization in the Braid Groups (with applications to transverse knots)
Joan S. Birman, William W. Menasco
Withdrawn and replaced by two related manuscripts: (1) "Stabilization in the braid groups I:MTWS", published in Geometry and Topology Volume 10 (2006), 413-540, arXiv:math.GT/03102…
On Markov's Theorem
Joan S. Birman, William W. Menasco
We give a new proof of Markov's classical theorem relating any two closed braid representations of the same knot or link. The proof is based upon ideas in a forthcoming paper by th…
Positive knots and knots with braid index three have property_p
William W. Menasco, Xingru Zhang
We prove that positive knots and knots with braid index three in the 3-sphere satisfy the Property P conjecture.
