A Standard Form for Incompressible Surfaces in a Handlebody
Let Σ be a compact surface and let I be the unit interval. This paper gives a standard form for all 2-sided incompressible surfaces in the 3-manifold Σ×I. Since Σ × I is a handlebody when Σ has boundary, this standard form applies to incompressible surfaces in a handlebody.

متن کاملSpaces of Incompressible Surfaces
The homotopy type of the space of PL homeomorphisms of a Haken 3 manifold was computed in [H1], and with the subsequent proof of the Smale conjecture in [H2], the computation carried over to diffeomorphisms as well. These results were also obtained independently by Ivanov [I1,I2]. The main step in the calculation in [H1], though not explicitly stated in these terms, was to show that the space o...
متن کاملLimits Of Incompressible Surfaces
One can embed arbitrarily many disjoint, non-parallel, non-boundary parallel, incompressible surfaces in any three manifold with at least one boundary component of genus two or greater [4]. This paper proves the contrasting, but not contradictory result that although one can sometimes embed arbitrarily many surfaces in a 3-manifold it is impossible to ever embed an infinite number of such surfa...
متن کاملIncompressible Surfaces in Link Complements
A link L in S has a 2n-plat projection for some n, as shown in Figure 1, where a box on the i-th row and j-th column consists of 2 vertical strings with aij left-hand half twist; in other words, it is a rational tangle of slope 1/aij. See for example [BZ]. Let n be the number of boxes in the even rows, so there are n − 1 boxes in the odd rows. Let m be the number of rows in the diagram. It was ...
