An Entity of Type: Bunch107959943, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

In the mathematical theory of knots, a Berge knot (named after mathematician John Berge) or doubly primitive knot is any member of a particular family of knots in the 3-sphere. A Berge knot K is defined by the conditions: 1. * K lies on a genus two Heegaard surface S 2. * in each handlebody bound by S, K meets some meridian disc exactly once. John Berge constructed these knots as a way of creating knots with lens space surgeries and classified all the Berge knots. Cameron Gordon conjectured these were the only knots admitting lens space surgeries. This is now known as the .
