Research Abstract |
Toward the characterization of the finite surgery (i.e., Dehn surgery producing 3-manifolds with finite fundamental groups) on the knots in the 3-sphere, as a first step, we gave a complete classification of finite surgeries on Montesinos knots. Related to the main subject, also studied were Dehn surgeries yielding Seifert fibered manifolds, called Seifert surgeries, and topological properties of Montesinos knots, called boundary slope diameters and crosscap numbers.
