L-space surgeries on links
Yajing Liu, Graduate Student, Mathematics, UCLA,

An L-space link is a link in the 3-sphere whose large

surgeries are all L-spaces. In this talk, we will discuss some

properties and examples of L-space links, in contrast to L-space

knots. Using the Manolescu-Ozsvath link surgery formula, we compute

the Heegaard Floer homology of surgeries on 2-components L-space links

in terms of their Alexander polynomials.
