Isomorphisms and peripheral structure of knot groups (Q1093951): Difference between revisions

We show that every isomorphism of prime knot groups preserves the peripheral subgroups of the knot groups, and therefore every isomorphism of prime knot groups is induced by a homeomorphism of the knot manifolds by Waldhausen. We also show that a cable knot is invertible if and only if its companion is invertible.
