Nonslice linear combinations of iterated torus knots

Anthony Conway, Min Hoon Kim and Wojciech Politarczyk

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 23 (2023) 765–802
Abstract

In 1976, Rudolph asked whether algebraic knots are linearly independent in the knot concordance group. We use twisted Blanchfield pairings to answer this question in the affirmative for new large families of algebraic knots.

Keywords
knot, concordance, algebraic knot, iterated torus knot, Casson–Gordon invariants, twisted Blanchfield form
