Universal links with trivial Lagrangian
by
Slava Krushkal
University of Virginia

Analyzing the effect of Nielsen moves on good boundary links, we construct a collection of links, universal for 4-dimensional surgery, admitting Seifert surfaces with trivial Lagrangian. I will also discuss a condition on good boundary links, giving rise to a new class of slice links. (Joint work with Michael Freedman)
