An Introduction to High Dimensional Knots
by Eiji Ogasa
Publisher: arXiv 2013
Number of pages: 92
Description:
This is an introductory article on high dimensional knots for the beginners. Is there a nontrivial high dimensional knot? We first answer this question. After that, we explain local moves on high dimensional knots and the projections of high dimensional knots.

Notes on Basic 3-Manifold Topologyby Allen Hatcher
These pages are really just an early draft of the initial chapters of a real book on 3-manifolds. The text does contain a few things that aren't readily available elsewhere, like the Jaco-Shalen/Johannson torus decomposition theorem.

Four-manifolds, Geometries and Knotsby Jonathan Hillman - arXiv
The goal of the book is to characterize algebraically the closed 4-manifolds that fibre nontrivially or admit geometries in the sense of Thurston, or which are obtained by surgery on 2-knots, and to provide a reference for the topology of such knots.

Diffeomorphisms of Elliptic 3-Manifoldsby S. Hong, J. Kalliongis, D. McCullough, J. H. Rubinstein - arXiv
The elliptic 3-manifolds are the closed 3-manifolds that admit a Riemannian metric of constant positive curvature. For any elliptic 3-manifold M, the inclusion from the isometry group of M to the diffeomorphism group of M is a homotopy equivalence.
