Baker's Floer-simple knot conjecture

At least 1 year old · documented by

Let LL be a lens space and let K⊂LK\subset L be a knot. A knot is Floer simple when its Floer-theoretic complexity is minimal, and it is simple when it belongs to the standard class of simple knots in a lens space. Baker's Floer-simple knot conjecture. If KK is Floer simple, then KK is simple. This is a Floer-theoretic formulation of the Berge conjecture and is related to slope detection through the characterization of Floer simplicity by non-NLS-detection of the knot meridian. Its general validity remains open.
