L-space fillings and generalized solid tori

Geometric Topology 2016-03-17 v1

Abstract

Much work has been done recently towards trying to understand the topological significance of being an L-space. Building on work of Rasmussen and Rasmussen, we give a topological characterisation of Floer simple manifolds such that all non-longitudinal fillings are L-spaces. We use this to partially classify L-space twisted torus knots in S1×S2S^1 \times S^2 and resolve a question asked by Rasmussen and Rasmussen.
