Abstract

S-equivalence of classical knots is investigated, as well as its relationship with mutation and the unknotting number. Furthermore, we identify the kernel of Bredon's double suspension map, and give a geometric relation between slice and algebraically slice knots. Finally, we show that every knot is S-equivalent to a prime knot.
