Determining the doubly slice genera of prime knots with up to 12 crossings

Lucia P. Karageorghis, Frank Swenton

For a knot $K$ , the doubly slice genus $g_{d s} (K)$ is the minimal $g$ such that $K$ divides a closed, orientable, and unknotted surface of genus $g$ embedded in $S^{4}$ . In this pape…

An algorithm to find ribbon disks for alternating knots

Brendan Owens, Frank Swenton

We describe an algorithm to find ribbon disks for alternating knots, and the results of a computer implementation of this algorithm. The algorithm is underlain by a slice link obst…

Limits and the system of near-numbers

Frank Swenton

In this paper, we present a comprehensive system for the treatment of the topic of limits--conceptually, computationally, and formally. The system addresses fundamental linguistic…
