A knot with destabilized bridge spheres of arbitrarily high bridge number
Yeonhee Jang, Tsuyoshi Kobayashi, Makoto Ozawa +1
We show that there exists an infinite family of knots, each of which has, for each integer k>=0, a destabilized (2k+5)-bridge sphere. We also show that, for each integer n>=4, ther…
