Two-Bridge Knots Have Property $\mathbf {P}$
Author: Moto-o Takahashi
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 082182239X
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 112
Book Description
A knot K is said to have Property P if simply-connected 3-manifolds cannot be obtained by non-trivial Dehn surgeries along K. Torus knots, twist knots, a class of 2-bridge knots, and 2-bridge knots with 9 or fewer crossings are known to have Property P. On the other hand, Ochiai proves that the 3-sphere cannot be obtained by a non-trivial surgery along a two-bridge knot. In this monograph we shall prove that every non-trivial two-bridge knot has Property P. In the proof we shall use Bezout's theorem in algebraic geometry.

25 Steps to Learning 2/1
Author: Paul Thurston
Publisher: Master Point Press
ISBN: 9781894154468
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
Another title in the best-selling '25' series, using the same popular format. Over the last fifteen or so years, the 2/1 Game Forcing bidding method has gained substantial popularity, but for various reasons it is not taught in beginner classes. This book is therefore designed for players who are familiar with Standard bidding and are interested in switching to the 2/1 method. It covers basic concepts as well as the differences between 2/1 and Standard auctions, and includes a discussion of more advanced ideas and conventions that fit particularly well with 2/1 methods. Existing books on this topic (notably by Max Hardy and Mike Lawrence) are too advanced and/or too technical for this level of player.
