| Abstract: | Some generalizations of the Fintushel-Stern rim surgery are known to produce smoothly knotted surfaces. We show that if the fundamental groups of their complements are standard, then these surfaces are topologically unknotted. |
| Keywords: | Rim surgery knotted surface surgery theory |
