Each of $K$ and $K^{\\prime}$ is called a branched twist spin. A twist spun knot is an example of a branched twist spin. The Gluck twists along branched twist spins are studied by Fintushel, Gordon and Pao. In this paper, we determine the 2-knot obtained from $K$ by the Gluck twist along $K^{\\prime}$. As an application, we give infinitely many pairs of inequivalent branched twist spins whose complements are homeomorphic.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-11-13T05:13:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "gluck twist", "periodic monodromy", "twist spun knot", "inequivalent branched twist spins", "effective locally smooth circle action" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
