On Transverse Triangulations
نویسنده
چکیده
We show that every smooth manifold admits a smooth triangulation transverse to a given smooth map. This removes the properness assumption on the smooth map used in an essential way in Scharlemann’s construction [6].

Taut ideal triangulations of 3–manifolds
A taut ideal triangulation of a 3–manifold is a topological ideal triangulation with extra combinatorial structure: a choice of transverse orientation on each ideal 2–simplex, satisfying two simple conditions. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that taut ideal triangulations are very common, and that their behaviour is very similar to that of a taut foliation. For example, by studying norm...
متن کاملLayered - Triangulations of 3 – Manifolds
A family of one-vertex triangulations of the genus-g-handlebody, called layered-triangulations, is defined. These triangulations induce a one-vertex triangulation on the boundary of the handlebody, a genus g surface. Conversely, any one-vertex triangulation of a genus g surface can be placed on the boundary of the genus-g-handlebody in infinitely many distinct ways; it is shown that any of thes...

متن کاملCounting triangulations and pseudo-triangulations of wheels
Motivated by several open questions on triangulations and pseudotriangulations, we give closed form expressions for the number of triangulations and the number of minimum pseudo-triangulations of n points in wheel configurations, that is, with n − 1 in convex position. Although the numbers of triangulations and pseudotriangulations vary depending on the placement of the interior point, their di...
متن کاملNew bijective links on planar maps via orientations
This article presents new bijections on planar maps. At first a bijection is established between bipolar orientations on planar maps and specific “transversal structures” on triangulations of the 4-gon with no separating 3-cycle, which are called irreducible triangulations. This bijection specializes to a bijection between rooted non-separable maps and rooted irreducible triangulations. This yi...
