Non-triviality conjecture for generalized alternating knots
Let be a closed surface embedded in , and let be a knot contained in with a reduced, prime, alternating diagram on .
Non-triviality conjecture. is not trivial for .
This conjecture concerns whether generalized alternating knots on closed surfaces can be trivial for the surface. The source provides no resolution status for the claim.
