We show that these invariants are finer than the \"top term\" of the knot Floer homology, which they contain. In particular, we use sutured Floer homology to distinguish two non-isotopic minimal genus Seifert surfaces for the knot 8_3. A key ingredient for this technique is finding appropriate Heegaard diagrams for the sutured manifold associated to the complement of a Seifert surface.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-11-02T18:11:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57M27", "57R58" ], "keywords": [ "non-isotopic minimal genus seifert surfaces", "equivalence", "sutured manifold", "knot floer homology", "sutured floer homology invariants" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 32, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0811.0178H" } } }
