Let $\mathcal{C}$ denote the smooth knot concordance group. A knot is strongly quasi-positive if it admits a strongly quasi-positive braid representative. Abe–Tagami and Baker's co…

Let $K$ be a smooth knot type. The HOMFLY bound on the maximum Thurston–Bennequin number of $K$ is the upper bound obtained from the HOMFLY polynomial, and $K$ is fillable if it ad…
