KNOTS IN S3 ADMITTING GRAPH MANIFOLD DEHN SURGERIES
Kang, Sungmo;

Abstract
In this paper, we construct infinite families of knots in $\small{S^3}$ which admit Dehn surgery producing a graph manifold which consists of two Seifert-fibered spaces over the disk with two exceptional fibers, glued together along their boundaries. In particular, we show that for any natural numbers a, b, c, and d with $\small{a{\geq}3}$ and $\small{b,c,d{\geq}2}$, there are knots in $\small{S^3}$ admitting a graph manifold Dehn surgery consisting of two Seifert-fibered spaces over the disk with two exceptional fibers of indexes a, b, and c, d, respectively.
