Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
We prove that every compressing disc of a (2n + 1, 2)-torus knot has at least 2n negative intersections with the knot; this implies that, in the language of [2], the natural framing is -2n. The proof uses an explicit and elementary simplification procedure for compressing discs.
