Abstract

We consider the JSJ-decomposition of the 3-manifold obtained by 0-surgery along a classical pretzel knot of genus one. We use the classification of exceptional fillings of minimally twisted five-chain links by B. Martelli, C. Petronio and F. Roukema.

Key Result

Theorem 1.1

Let $\mathcal{T}$ be the set of decomposing tori of the JSJ-decomposition of the 3-manifold obtained by $0$-surgery along a pretzel knot $P_{2p+1,2q+1,2r+1}$. Then we have the following.
