Allen's non-orientable surface realizability conjecture for torus knots
For a positive torus knot , let denote the normal Euler number and non-orientable genus of a smoothly and properly embedded surface in bounded by the knot. The exceptional pairs are
where is a non-negative integer. For a positive torus knot , the exceptional pairs are
where is a non-negative integer. Allen's conjecture. Both of these families of pairs are not realizable. This concerns the unresolved realizability question for non-orientable surfaces bounded by torus knots; the supplied text gives no resolution status.
