Baker–Moore conjecture on tangle decompositions of L-space knots
Baker–Moore conjecture on tangle decompositions of L-space knots
Let be a knot in . An essential tangle decomposition is an essential –string tangle decomposition for some integer , meaning that there is a –sphere intersecting transversely in points whose complement in the knot exterior is essential. Baker–Moore conjecture. Any L-space knot has no essential tangle decomposition. The conjecture generalizes the Lidman–Moore assertion for essential –string tangle decompositions; the supplied source gives no resolution status.
