On nonsimple knots in lens spaces with tunnel number one
Michael J. Williams
A knot k in a closed orientable 3-manifold is called nonsimple if the exterior of k possesses a properly embedded essential surface of nonnegative Euler characteristic. We show tha…

Lens space surgeries & primitive/Seifert type constructions
Michael J. Williams
We show that lens space surgeries on knots in which arise from the primitive/Seifert type construction also arise from the primitive/primitive construction. This is the first…
