The Kauffman–Harary conjecture states that for any reduced alternating diagram K of a knot with a prime determinant p, every non-trivial Fox p-coloring of K assigns different colors to its arcs. We generalize this conjecture by stating it in terms of homology of the double cover of S3. In this way we extend the scope of the conjecture to all prime alternating links of arbitrary determinants. We first prove the Kauffman–Harary conjecture for pretzel knots and then we generalize our argument to show the generalized Kauffman–Harary conjecture for all Montesinos links. Finally, we discuss on the relation between the conjecture and Menasco's work on incompressible surfaces in exteriors of alternating links.

Abstract General K3 surfaces obtained as double covers of the n-th Hirzebruch surfaces with n = 0, 1, 4 are not double covers of other smooth surfaces. We give a criterion for such a K3 surface to be a double covering of another smooth rational surface based on the branch locus of double covers and fibre spaces of Hirzebruch surfaces.

AbstractWe prove a functorial correspondence between a category of logarithmic $$\mathfrak {sl}_2$$ sl 2 -connections on a curve $${\mathsf {X}}$$ X with fixed generic residues and a category of abelian logarithmic connections on an appropriate spectral double cover "Equation missing". The proof is by constructing a pair of inverse functors $$\pi ^\text {ab}, \pi _\text {ab}$$ π ab , π ab , and the key is the construction of a certain canonical cocycle valued in the automorphisms of the direct image functor $$\pi _*$$ π ∗ .

Let X be a nonsingular algebraic K3 surface carrying a nonsingular hyperelliptic curve of genus 3 and no rational curves. Our purpose is to study two algebraic deformations of X, viz. one specialization and one generalization. We assume the characteristic ≠ 2. The generalization of X is a nonsingular quartic surface Q in P3 : we wish to show in § 1 that there is an irreducible algebraic family of surfaces over the affine line, in which X is a member and in which Q is a general member. The specialization of X is a surface Y having a birational model which is a ramified double cover of a quadric cone in P3.

The Δ-unknotting number for a knot is defined to be the minimum number of Δ-unknotting operations which deform the knot into the trivial knot. We determine the Δ-unknotting numbers for torus knots, positive pretzel knots, and positive closed 3-braids.

Abstract Let X be an Enriques surface over the field of complex numbers. We prove that there exists a nontrivial quaternion algebra 𝓐 on X. Then we study the moduli scheme of torsion free 𝓐-modules of rank one. Finally we prove that this moduli scheme is an étale double cover of a Lagrangian subscheme in the corresponding moduli scheme on the associated covering K3 surface.
