Symmetries and hidden symmetries of $(\epsilon, d_L)$–twisted knot complements

Neil R Hoffman, Christian Millichap and William Worden

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 22 (2022) 601–656
Abstract

We analyze symmetries, hidden symmetries and commensurability classes of (𝜖,dN)–twisted knot complements, which are the complements of knots that have a sufficiently large number of twists in each of their twist regions. These knot complements can be constructed via long Dehn fillings on fully augmented link complements. We show that such knot complements have no hidden symmetries, which implies that there are at most two other knot complements in their respective commensurability classes. Under mild additional hypotheses, we show that these knots have at most four (orientation-preserving) symmetries and are the only knot complements in their respective commensurability classes. Finally, we provide an infinite family of explicit examples of (𝜖,dN)–twisted knot complements that are the unique knot complements in their respective commensurability classes obtained by filling a fully augmented link complement with four crossing circles.
