Slice ribbon conjecture, pretzel knots and mutation
In this paper we explore the slice-ribbon conjecture for some families of pretzel knots. Donaldson's diagonalization theorem provides a powerful obstruction to sliceness via the union of the double branched cover W of B⁴ over a slicing disk and a plumbing manifold P([capital gamma]). Donaldson&...
