Two varieties of tunnel number subadditivity
Knot theory and 3-manifold topology are closely intertwined, and few invariants stand so firmly in the intersection of these two subjects as the tunnel number of a knot, denoted t(K). We describe two very general constructions that result in knot and link pairs which are subbaditive with respect to...
