Recently, Jeffrey Meier gave smoothly slice knots that are topologically doubly slice, but not smoothly doubly slice. As an application, we give a new example of such knots that is distinct from Meier's knots modulo doubly slice knots.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-11-23T06:38:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57M25", "57N70" ], "keywords": [ "correction terms", "polynomial splittings", "gave smoothly slice knots", "knots modulo doubly slice", "meier gave smoothly slice" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
