Infinitely many standard trisection diagrams for Gluck twisting

Abstract

Gay and Meier asked if a trisection diagram for the Gluck twist on a spun or twist-spun 2-knot in S4 obtained by a certain method is standard. In this paper, we show that the trisection diagram for the Gluck twist on the spun (p+1,p)-torus knot is standard, where p is any integer greater than or equal to 2.
