An almost-fibered knot is a knot whose complement possesses a circular thin position in which there is one and only one weakly incompressible Seifert surface and one incompressible Seifert surface. Infinite examples of almost-fibered knots are known. In this talk, we will show the existence of infinitely many hyperbolic genus one knots that are not almost-fibered.

Joint work with Mario Eudave Muñoz (Instituto de Matemáticas, UNAM) and Enrique Ramírez Losada (CIMAT, Guanajuato).
