%0 Journal Article %T Band surgeries and crossing changes between fibered links %A Dorothy Buck %A Kai Ishihara %A Matt Rathbun %A Koya Shimokawa %J Mathematics %D 2013 %I arXiv %X We characterize cutting arcs on fiber surfaces that produce new fiber surfaces, and the changes in monodromy resulting from such cuts. As a corollary, we characterize band surgeries between fibered links and introduce an operation called Generalized Hopf banding. We further characterize generalized crossing changes between fibered links, and the resulting changes in monodromy. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1304.6781v3
