Ribbon concordance and cabling

Jennifer Hom, JungHwan Park

We study ribbon concordances to cable knots. We formulate a conjecture predicting that any nontrivial knot admitting a ribbon concordance to a (p,q)-cable must itself be a (p,q)-ca…

Smooth Realizations of Line Configurations

Paolo Aceto, Duncan McCoy, JungHwan Park

We study the problem of realizing line configurations as collections of 2-spheres smoothly embedded in the complex projective plane. Building upon prior work by Ruberman and Starks…

Concordance to boundary links and the solvable filtration

Christopher W. Davis, Shelly Harvey, JungHwan Park

A geometric interpretation of the vanishing of Milnor's higher order linking numbers remains an important open problem in the study of link concordance. In the 1990's, works of Coc…

Topologically and rationally slice knots

Jennifer Hom, Sungkyung Kang, JungHwan Park

A knot in is topologically slice if it bounds a locally flat disk in . A knot in is rationally slice if it bounds a smooth disk in a rational homology ball. We pro…

Slice obstructions from genus bounds in definite 4-manifolds

Paolo Aceto, Nickolas A. Castro, Maggie Miller +2

We discuss an obstruction to a knot being smoothly slice that comes from minimum-genus bounds on smoothly embedded surfaces in definite 4-manifolds. As an example, we provide an al…

Handle decomposition complexity and representation spaces

Paolo Aceto, Aliakbar Daemi, Jennifer Hom +2

We prove that there are homology three-spheres that bound definite four-manifolds, but any such bounding four-manifold must be built out of many handles. The argument uses the homo…
