We show that any exceptional non-trivial Dehn surgery on a hyperbolic two-bridge knot yields a 3-manifold whose fundamental group is left-orderable. This gives a new supporting evidence for a conjecture of Boyer, Gordon and Watson.

For any hyperbolic genus one 2-bridge knot in the 3-sphere, we show that the resulting manifold by $r$-surgery on the knot has left-orderable fundamental group if the slope $r$ lies in some range which depends on the knot.

A slope $r$ is called a left orderable slope of a knot $K \subset S^3$ if the 3-manifold obtained by $r$-surgery along $K$ has left orderable fundamental group. Consider two-bridge knots $C(2m, \pm 2n)$ and $C(2m+1, -2n)$ in the Conway…

We show that the resulting manifold by $r$-surgery on a large class of two-bridge knots has left-orderable fundamental group if the slope $r$ satisfies certain conditions. This result gives a supporting evidence to a conjecture of Boyer,…

We introduce a new method of detecting when the fundamental group of a Dehn surgery on a knot admits a left-ordering, a method which is particularly useful for 2-bridge knots. As an illustration of this method, we show that all Dehn…

We show that the resulting manifold by $r$-surgery on the knot $5_2$, which is the two-bridge knot corresponding to the rational number 3/7, has left-orderable fundamental group if the slope $r$ satisfies $0\le r\le 4$.

In this paper, we study the Riley polynomial of double twist knots with higher genus. Using the root of the Riley polynomial, we compute the range of rational slope $r$ such that $r$-filling of the knot complement has left-orderable…

A rational number $r$ is called a left orderable slope of a knot $K \subset S^3$ if the 3-manifold obtained from $S^3$ by $r$-surgery along $K$ has left orderable fundamental group. In this paper we consider the double twist knots $C(k,l)$…

We determine the Dehn surgeries on 2-bridge links, which yield reducible 3-manifolds. Further, we show the conditions that we obtain a torus or cable knot from one component of a 2-bridge link by a surgery on another component.

Boyer, Gordon, and Watson have conjectured that an irreducible rational homology 3-sphere is an L-space if and only if its fundamental group is not left-orderable. Since Dehn surgeries on knots in $S^3$ can produce large families of…

In this paper, we prove that the fundamental group of the manifold obtained by Dehn surgery along a $(-2,3,2s+1)$-pretzel knot ($s\ge 3$) with slope $\frac{p}{q}$ is not left orderable if $\frac{p}{q}\ge 2s+3$, and that it is left orderable…

We show that the resulting manifold by $r$-surgery on the hyperbolic twist knot $K_m, \, m \ge 2$, has left-orderable fundamental group if the slope $r$ satisfies the condition $r \in (-4,2m)$ if $m$ is even, and $r \in [0,4] \cup…

In a recent paper Y. Hu has given a sufficient condition for the fundamental group of the r-th cyclic branched covering of S^3 along a prime knot to be left-orderable in terms of representations of the knot group. Applying her criterion to…

We prove that a positive two-bridge knot other than the $(2,k)$ torus knot does not admit chirally cosmetic surgeries, a pair of Dehn surgeries along distinct slopes yielding orientation-reversingly homeomorphic 3-manifolds.

We will classify all exceptional Dehn surgeries on 2-bridge knots according to whether they produce reducible, toroidal, or small Seifert fibered manifolds.

We construct a 1-parameter family of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbf{R})$ representations of the pretzel knot $P(-2,3,7)$. As a consequence, we conclude that Dehn surgeries on this knot are left-orderable for all rational surgery slopes less than 6.…

Boyer, Gordon, and Watson have conjectured that an irreducible rational homology 3-sphere is an L-space if and only if its fundamental group is not left-orderable. Since large classes of L-spaces can be produced from Dehn surgery on knots…

We show that two-bridge knots and alternating fibered knots admit no purely cosmetic surgeries, i.e., no pair of distinct Dehn surgeries on such a knot produce 3-manifolds that are homeomorphic as oriented manifolds. Our argument, based on…

We consider the question of which Dehn surgeries along a given knot bound rational homology balls. We use Ozsv\'ath and Szab\'o's correction terms in Heegaard Floer homology to obtain general constraints on the surgery coefficients. We then…

Let $M$ be a $3$--dimensional handlebody of genus $g$. This paper gives examples of hyperbolic knots in $M$ with arbitrarily large genus $g$ bridge number which admit Dehn surgeries which are boundary-reducible manifolds.
