متن کاملPersistently laminar branched surfaces
We define sink marks for branched complexes and find conditions for them to determine a branched surface structure. These will be used to construct branched surfaces in knot and tangle complements. We will extend Delman’s theorem and prove that a non 2-bridge Montesinos knot K has a persistently laminar branched surface unless it is equivalent to K(1/2q1, 1/q2, 1/q3, −1) for some positive integ...
متن کاملR-covered Branched Surfaces
We give sufficient conditions for an R-covered codimension one foliation F of a closed 3-manifold to be carried by an Rcovered branched surface; that is, a branched surface carrying only foliations with the R-covered property. These conditions can be readily verified for many examples. In cases where the branched surface is generated by disks, the R-covered property is stable for F in the sense...
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...
