Representing open 3-manifolds as 3-fold branched coverings.

José María Montesinos-Amilibia (2002)

Revista Matemática Complutense

Similarity:

It is proved that the Freudenthal compactification of an open, connected, oriented 3-manifold is a 3-fold branched covering of S, and in some cases, a 2-fold branched covering of S. The branching set is a locally finite disjoint union of strings.

Minimal atlases of manifolds

Alberto Cavicchioli, Luigi Grasselli (1985)

Cahiers de Topologie et Géométrie Différentielle Catégoriques

Similarity:

Two-fold branched coverings of S have type six.

Maria Rita Casali (1992)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

Similarity:

In this work, we prove that every closed, orientable 3-manifold M which is a two-fold covering of S branched over a link, has type six.

Combinatorial lemmas for polyhedrons

Adam Idzik, Konstanty Junosza-Szaniawski (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

We formulate general boundary conditions for a labelling to assure the existence of a balanced n-simplex in a triangulated polyhedron. Furthermore we prove a Knaster-Kuratowski-Mazurkiewicz type theorem for polyhedrons and generalize some theorems of Ichiishi and Idzik. We also formulate a necessary condition for a continuous function defined on a polyhedron to be an onto function.

Simplicial nonpositive curvature

Tadeusz Januszkiewicz, Jacek Świątkowski (2006)

Publications Mathématiques de l'IHÉS

Similarity:

We introduce a family of conditions on a simplicial complex that we call local -largeness (≥6 is an integer). They are simply stated, combinatorial and easily checkable. One of our themes is that local 6-largeness is a good analogue of the non-positive curvature: locally 6-large spaces have many properties similar to non-positively curved ones. However, local 6-largeness neither implies nor is implied by non-positive curvature of the standard metric. One can think of these results as...
