Abstract
Using an argument of Baldwin–Hu–Sivek, we prove that if K is a hyperbolic fibered knot with fiber F in a closed, oriented 3-manifold Y, and HFKˆ(Y,K,[F],g(F)−1) has rank 1, then the monodromy of K is freely isotopic to a pseudo-Anosov map with no fixed points. In particular, this shows that the monodromy of a hyperbolic L-space knot is freely isotopic to a map with no fixed points.
