Conjecture on orientation reversal for even-winding satellite patterns
Conjecture on orientation reversal for even-winding satellite patterns
Let be a pattern with winding number, the algebraic intersection number of the pattern with a meridional disk of the solid torus, a nonzero even integer. For a knot , write for the satellite knot obtained from and , and write for the inverse of in the smooth knot concordance group. Even-winding reversal conjecture. There exists a knot such that is not concordant to . No such example is known for even winding number unless the pattern induces the zero map, so the conjecture remains open.
