Spherical structures on torus knots and links

Abstract

The present paper considers two infinite families of cone-manifolds endowed with spherical metric. The singular strata is either the torus knot ${\rm t}(2n+1, 2)$ or the torus link ${\rm t}(2n, 2)$. Domains of existence for a spherical metric are found in terms of cone angles and volume formul{\ae} are presented.Comment: 17 pages, 5 figures; typo
