Geometric Topology 2013-03-14 v2

Abstract

We show that the resulting manifold by rr-surgery on the hyperbolic twist knot Km,m2K_m, \, m \ge 2, has left-orderable fundamental group if the slope rr satisfies the condition r(4,2m)r \in (-4,2m) if mm is even, and r[0,4](4mω+4,2m+4)r \in [0,4] \cup (\frac{4m}{\omega}+4, 2m+4) if mm is odd, where ω>1\omega>1 is the unique real solution of the equation xex=4mx e^{x}=4m.
