A'Campo's Example
Notes:
- Thanks to Raimundo dos Santos for
suggesting this fibration.
- This is an example of a real Milnor fibration (as opposed to a
complex Milnor fibration). It is special because it is the first
nontrivial example of a real Milnor fibration that is not just a
modification of a complex fibration.
- The genus of the double link is 2.
- The link consists of three mutually interlocking circles.
- The second movie shows the fibration when we stereographically
project from a point on the link. Thus one of the circles has
been blown up into a line. Note how similar the fibration is to
just rotation about the line.
