Book Description
A knot K is said to have Property P if simply-connected 3-manifolds cannot be obtained by non-trivial Dehn surgeries along K. Torus knots, twist knots, a class of 2-bridge knots, and 2-bridge knots with 9 or fewer crossings are known to have Property P. On the other hand, Ochiai proves that the 3-sphere cannot be obtained by a non-trivial surgery along a two-bridge knot. In this monograph we shall prove that every non-trivial two-bridge knot has Property P. In the proof we shall use Bezout's theorem in algebraic geometry.
