Let [Formula: see text] be a nontrivial knot in [Formula: see text]. It was conjectured that there exists a Neuwirth surface for [Formula: see text]. That is, a closed surface in [Formula: see text] containing the knot [Formula: see text] as a nonseparating curve and such that every compressing disk for the surface intersects the knot in at least two points. We provide explicit constructions of Neuwirth surfaces for a family of satellite knots, which do not depend on the existence of nonorientable algebraically incompressible and [Formula: see text]-incompressible spanning surfaces for these knots.

Satellite Knots

A torti-rational knot, denoted by K(2α, β|r), is a knot obtained from the 2-bridge link B(2α, β) by applying Dehn twists an arbitrary number of times, r, along one component of B(2α, β). We determine the genus of K(2α, β|r) and solve a question of when K(2α, β|r) is fibered. In most cases, the Alexander polynomials determine the genus and fiberedness of these knots. We develop both algebraic and geometric techniques to describe the genus and fiberedness by means of continued fraction expansions of β/2α. Then, we explicitly construct minimal genus Seifert surfaces. As an application, we solve the same question for the satellite knots of tunnel number one.

Satellite Knots

In this paper, I present a new family of knots in the solid torus called lassos, and their properties. Given a knot [Formula: see text] with Alexander polynomial [Formula: see text], I then use these lassos as patterns to construct families of satellite knots that have Alexander polynomial [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text]. In particular, I prove that if [Formula: see text] these satellite knots have different Jones polynomials.

We show an infinite family of satellite knots that can be unknotted by a single band move, but such that there is no band unknotting the knots which is disjoint from the satellite torus.
