Generalized Neuwirth Groups and Seifert Fibered Manifolds
نویسنده
چکیده
The topological properties of the generalized Neuwirth groups are discussed. For example, we shall demonstrate that the group ? k n is the fundamental group of the Seifert bered space | {z } n times): Moreover we discuss some other invariants and algebraic properties of the above groups.

Compatible Contact Structures of Fibered Seifert Links in Homology 3-spheres
We introduce a new technique for constructing contact structures compatible with fibered Seifert multilinks in homology 3-spheres and fibered multilinks with cabling structures in any 3-manifolds. The contact structure constructed in this paper is so well-organized that we can easily see if it is tight or overtwisted in most cases. As an application, we classify the tightness of contact structu...
متن کاملJa n 20 07 THE UNIVERSAL COVER OF 3 - MANIFOLDS BUILT FROM INJECTIVE HANDLEBODIES IS
This paper gives a proof that the universal cover of a closed 3-manifold built from three π1-injective handlebodies is homeomorphic to R. This construction is an extension to handlebodies of the conditions for gluing of three solid tori to produce non-Haken Seifert fibered manifolds with infinite fundamental group. This class of manifolds has been shown to contain non-Haken non-Seifert fibered ...
متن کاملHeegaard Gradient of Seifert Fibered 3-manifolds
The infimal Heegaard gradient of a 3-manifold was defined and studied by Marc Lackenby in an approach toward the well-known virtually Haken conjecture. As instructive examples, we consider Seifert fibered 3manifolds, and show that a compact orientable Seifert fibered 3-manifold has zero infimal Heegaard gradient if and only if it virtually fibers over the circle or over a surface other than the...
متن کاملAn Introduction to 3-manifolds
Introduction In these lecture notes we will give a quick introduction to 3–manifolds, with a special emphasis on their fundamental groups. The lectures were held at the summer school 'groups and manifolds' held in Münster July 18 to 21 2011. In the first section we will show that given k ≥ 4 any finitely presented group is the fundamental group of a closed k–dimensional man-ifold. This is not t...
متن کاملCLASSIFICATION OF TIGHT CONTACT STRUCTURES ON SMALL SEIFERT 3–MANIFOLDS WITH e0 ≥ 0
We classify positive, tight contact structures on closed Seifert fibered 3–manifolds with base S2, three singular fibers and e0 ≥ 0.
