Twist spinning of knots and metabolizers of Blanchfield pairings

Dans un article classique, Zeeman a introduit le k-twist spin d’un nœud K et montré que l’extérieur d’un twist spin fibre sur S 1 . En particulier ce résultat montre que le nœud K#-K est doublement concordant au nœud trivial. Dans cet article, nous donnons une démonstration rapide du résultat de Zeeman. Le k-twist spin de K produit deux métaboliseurs pour K#-K que nous déterminons précisément.

In a classic paper Zeeman introduced the k-twist spin of a knot K and showed that the exterior of a twist spin fibers over S 1 . In particular this result shows that the knot K#-K is doubly slice. In this paper we give a quick proof of Zeeman’s result. The k-twist spin of K also gives rise to two metabolizers for K#-K and we determine these two metabolizers precisely.
