Inequivalent frame-spun knots with the same complement (Q2368011)

For many years one of the more tantalising problems in knot theory was to discover whether an \(n\)-knot is always determined by its complement. The first counter-examples were given by Cappell and Shaneson, for \(n=2,3,4\) and 5, and shortly afterwards by Gordon, for \(n=2\). It was already known that, for \(n\geq 2\), there are at most two \(n\)-knots with a given complement, and recent work of Gordon and Luecke shows that a classical knot is always determined by its complement. By applying Roseman's technique of frame-spinning to Gordon's 2-knots, the author shows that for every \(n\equiv 3\) or \(4\pmod 8\), there exist \(n\)-knots which are not determined by their complements.
