The Heegaard Genus of Amalgamated 3-manifolds

When studying Haken 3-manifolds, one is led naturally to the following construction: the amalgamation of two 3-manifolds M and M ′ via a homeomorphism between their boundaries. In this paper, we study the behaviour of Heegaard genus under this operation. We show that, provided the gluing homeomorphism is ‘sufficiently complicated’ and M and M ′ satisfy some standard conditions, then the Heegaar...

On the Heegaard splittings of amalgamated 3–manifolds

Conversely, let F be a connected separating incompressible surface in a closed 3– manifold M′ and M1 and M2 the two manifolds obtained by cutting open M′ along F . Then one can construct a weakly reducible Heegaard splitting by amalgamating two splittings of M1 and M2 along F , see Scharlemann [13] for more detailed discussion. In [10] Lackenby showed that if M1 and M2 are simple and the gluing...

Heegaard Stability in Amalgamated 3-manifolds I: Connected Sums

Let M1 and M2 be closed, irreducible 3-manifolds. Let Hi and Gi denote non-isotopic Heegaard surfaces in Mi, where Hi is unstabilized. Let H be the amalgamation of H1 and H2 and G be the amalgamation of G1 and G2 in M1#M2. Then H is not a stabilization of G. It follows that H and G are not isotopic, and that H is unstabilized. This answers a question of C. Gordon (Problem 3.91 from [Kir97]) in ...

Sweepouts of amalgamated 3–manifolds

To this end let X and Y be 3–manifolds with incompressible boundary homeomorphic to a connected surface F . It is not difficult to show that if HX and HY are Heegaard surfaces in X and Y then we can amalgamate these splittings to obtain a Heegaard surface in X∪F Y with genus equal to g(HX)+g(HY )−g(F) (see, for example, Schultens [14]). Letting g(X), g(Y), and g(X∪F Y) denote the minimal genus ...
