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.

3-manifold spines and bijoins.

Luigi Grasselli (1990)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

Similarity:

We describe a combinatorial algorithm for constructing all orientable 3-manifolds with a given standard bidimensional spine by making use of the idea of bijoin (Bandieri and Gagliardi (1982), Graselli (1985)) over a suitable pseudosimplicial triangulation of the spine.

Yamada polynomial and crossing number of spatial graphs.

Tomoe Motohashi, Yoshiyuki Ohyama, Kouki Taniyama (1994)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

Similarity:

In this paper we estimate the crossing number of a flat vertex graph in 3-space in terms of the reduced degree of its Yamada polynomial.

Heegaard and regular genus of 3-manifolds with boundary.

P. Cristofori, C. Gagliardi, L. Grasselli (1995)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

Similarity:

By means of branched coverings techniques, we prove that the Heegaard genus and the regular genus of an orientable 3-manifold with boundary coincide.

Knots, butterflies and 3-manifolds..

A note on unlinking numbers of Montesinos links.

K. Motegi (1996)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

Similarity:

Let K (resp. L) be a Montesinos knot (resp. link) with at least four branches. Then we show the unknotting number (resp. unlinking number) of K (resp. L) is greater than 1.

Open 3-manifolds, wild subsets of S and branched coverings.

José María Montesinos-Amilibia (2003)

Revista Matemática Complutense

Similarity:

In this paper, a representation of closed 3-manifolds as branched coverings of the 3-sphere, proved in [13], and showing a relationship between open 3-manifolds and wild knots and arcs will be illustrated by examples. It will be shown that there exist a 3-fold simple covering p : S --> S branched over the remarkable simple closed curve of Fox [4] (a wild knot). Moves are defined such that when applied to a branching set, the corresponding covering manifold remains unchanged, while...
