Every knot has characterising slopes
Let K be a knot in the 3-sphere. A slope p/q is said to be characterising for K if whenever p/q surgery on K is homeomorphic, via an orientation-preserving homeomorphism, to p/q surgery on another knot K in the 3-sphere, then K and K are isotopic. It was an old conjecture of Gordon, proved by Kronhe...
