Knot exteriors from solid-torus neighbourhoods #

The exterior of a framed knot is the complement of the open solid torus in a solid-torus neighbourhood. This file gives that complement a named carrier and records the compactness and boundary facts needed by Dehn filling.

It also makes the exterior a topological manifold with boundary when the ambient space is a Hausdorff topological 3-manifold. A solid torus neighbourhood Φ alone does not suffice for this, since nothing controls the ambient space just outside the image of Φ. Shrinking the solid torus to half its radius, Φ ∘ SolidTorus.halve, leaves room on both sides of the new boundary torus: the annuli {w | 0 < ‖w‖ < 1} of Φ give it a bicollar (TauCeti.IsSolidTorusNeighborhood.isBicollared_comp_halve_comp_boundaryInclusion), with the radius ‖w‖ = σ(t) read through the logistic sigmoid σ. The exterior of the shrunken neighbourhood is the outer side of this bicollar, so TauCeti.IsBicollar.sideChartedSpace charts it on the half-space EuclideanHalfSpace 3, with manifold boundary the torus (TauCeti.IsSolidTorusNeighborhood.boundary_exteriorChartedSpace). This file constructs the topological charted-space structure.

    Membership in the exterior means that a point is outside the open solid-torus image.

    The exterior of a solid torus neighbourhood, with its boundary torus removed, is the complement of the closed solid torus.

    The exterior is closed in any ambient topological space.

    In a compact ambient space, the knot exterior is compact.

    The framed boundary torus is the frontier of the knot exterior.

    The boundary torus of a solid torus neighbourhood lies in the knot exterior.

    The boundary torus of the knot exterior, parametrized by S¹ × S¹ through the solid torus neighbourhood: q ↦ Φ (q.1, q.2).

    Instances For
      @[simp]

      The parametrized boundary torus of the exterior is q ↦ Φ (q.1, q.2).

      The parametrization of the boundary torus of the exterior is injective.

      The parametrization of the boundary torus of the exterior is an embedding.

      The open exterior of a solid torus neighbourhood Φ in a Hausdorff space: the complement of the closed solid torus range Φ, which is the knot exterior with its boundary torus removed (TauCeti.knotExterior_sdiff_range). In a 3-manifold it is the manifold interior of the exterior.

        The half-radius solid torus #

        The solid torus of half the radius inside the solid torus: (w, z) ↦ (w / 2, z).

          Halving the radius is an embedding of the solid torus into itself.

          Halving the radius maps the open solid torus onto the open solid torus of radius 1 / 2.

          A solid torus neighbourhood restricts to an open embedding on every open subset of the open solid torus.

          The solid torus of half the radius is again a solid torus neighbourhood of the knot.

          The bicollar of the boundary torus of the half-radius solid torus inside a solid torus neighbourhood Φ: ((u, z), t) ↦ Φ (σ(t) u, z), where σ is the logistic sigmoid. It meets the exterior of the half-radius solid torus exactly in its nonnegative half (TauCeti.IsSolidTorusNeighborhood.preimage_halveBicollar_knotExterior).

            The exterior of the half-radius solid torus inside a solid torus neighbourhood, in a Hausdorff topological 3-manifold, as a topological manifold with boundary: it is the outer side of the bicollar of its boundary torus, charted by TauCeti.IsBicollar.sideChartedSpace. Its manifold boundary is the boundary torus (TauCeti.IsSolidTorusNeighborhood.boundary_exteriorChartedSpace).
