State invariants of two-bridge knots
Cynthia L. Curtis, Vincent Longo
In this paper, we consider generalizations of the Alexander polynomial and signature of 2-bridge knots by considering the Gordon-Litherland bilinear forms associated to essential s…
Repeated boundary slopes for 2-bridge knots
Cynthia L. Curtis, William Franczak, Randolph J. Leiser +1
We investigate the question of when distinct branched surfaces in the complement of a 2-bridge knot support essential surfaces with identical boundary slopes. We determine all inst…
A PSL(2,C) Casson Invariant
Cynthia L. Curtis
We use intersection theory techniques to define an invariant of closed 3-manifolds counting the characters of irreducible representations of the fundamental group in PSL(2,C). We n…
A Dehn surgery description of regular finite cyclic covering spaces of rational homology spheres
Cynthia L. Curtis
We provide related Dehn surgery descriptions for rational homology spheres and a class of their regular finite cyclic covering spaces. As an application, we use the surgery descrip…
