On the detection of knots by their traces in high dimensions

Valentina Bais, Alessio Di Prisa, Daniel Hartman +8

For every $n \geq 4$ , we demonstrate the existence of non-isotopic, smooth $(n - 2)$ -knots in $S^{n}$ with diffeomorphic traces. We give two proofs: the first by generalising the RBG l…

Dehn surgery functions are never injective

Kyle Hayden, Lisa Piccirillo, Laura Wakelin

We prove that, for each fixed rational number $p / q \in Q$ , there exists a pair of distinct knots whose $p / q$ -surgeries are orientation-preservingly homeomorphic. This conf…
