As an application, we generalize a result of Baker on ribbon concordances between fibered knots. Following Baker, we conclude that either fibered knots $K$ in $S^{3}$ satisfying that $\\Upsilon'(t) = -g(K)$ for some $t \\in [0,1)$ are unique in their smooth concordance classes or there exists a counterexample to the Slice-Ribbon Conjecture.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-11-13T19:32:40.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57M25", "57M27", "57R17", "57R58" ], "keywords": [ "fibered knot", "right-veering open books", "upsilon invariant", "ozsvath-stipsicz-szabo concordance invariant upsilon", "open book decomposition" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
