The universal rank-expansion conjecture for winding-zero satellite operators
The universal rank-expansion conjecture for winding-zero satellite operators
Let be the smooth knot concordance group. A satellite operator is rank-expanding along if is a rank-one subgroup of and has infinite rank. Universal rank-expansion conjecture. Any non-constant winding number zero satellite operator is rank-expanding along every rank-one subgroup . This would strengthen the preceding existence conjecture by requiring rank expansion for every nontorsion knot . The paper proves rank expansion for many patterns and companion families, but this universal assertion remains open.
