Strongly-cyclic branched coverings of knots via $(g,1)$-decompositions

Geometric Topology 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

Strongly-cyclic branched coverings of knots are studied by using their (g,1)-decompositions. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of such coverings are obtained. It is also shown that their fundamental groups admit geometric g-words cyclic presentations.
