Crosscap number two knots in S3 with (1,1) decompositions

Abstract

M. Scharlemann has recently proved that any genus one tunnel number one knot is either a satellite or 2-bridge knot, as conjectured by H. Goda and M. Teragaito; all such knots admit a (1,1) decomposition. In this paper we give a classification of the family of (1,1) knots in S3 with crosscap number two (i.e., bounding an essential once-punctured Klein bottle).
