Authored summary

OPEN as checked on 2026-08-01. Strongest checked neighboring result: The conjecture holds for many classes, including strongly invertible and recent thin-knot regimes, with strong restrictions in general. Exact unresolved remainder: The classification for arbitrary knots in S³ remains open.

The record cites sources for its explanation.

2Authored explanation

The problem was checked as open on 2026-08-01.

The strongest neighboring result found in the cited sources is: The conjecture holds for many classes, including strongly invertible and recent thin-knot regimes, with strong restrictions in general.

The exact unresolved remainder is: The classification for arbitrary knots in S³ remains open.

A complete resolution must meet the following acceptance conditions: - Prove the cable-and-slope conclusion for every nontrivial knot in S³. - Or give a noncable knot and slope whose surgery is reducible.
