Exceptional Dehn surgery on large arborescent knots
Ying-Qing Wu
A Dehn surgery on a knot in is exceptional if it produces a reducible, toroidal or Seifert fibred manifold. It is known that a large arborescent knot admits no such surge…
The Classification of Dehn fillings on the outer torus of a 1-bridge braid exterior which produce solid tori
Ying-Qing Wu
Let be a 1-bridge braid in a solid torus , and let be a curve on the torus of the exterior of . It will be shown that Dehn fi…
Inscribing smooth knots with regular polygons
Ying-Qing Wu
A regular -gon inscribing a knot is a sequence of points on a knot, such that the distances between adjacent points are all the same. It is shown that any smooth knot is ins…
Thin position and essential planar surfaces
Ying-Qing Wu
Abby Thompson proved that if a link is in thin position but not in bridge position then the knot complement contains an essential meridional planar surface, and she asked wheth…
The classification of Toroidal Dehn surgeries on Montesinos knots
Ying-Qing Wu
Exceptional Dehn surgeries have been classified for 2-bridge knots and Montesinos knots of length at least 4. In this paper we classify all toroidal Dehn surgeries on Montesinos kn…
