Twisted book decompositions and the Goeritz groups

Geometric Topology 2020-01-22 v3

Abstract

We consider the Goeritz groups of the Heegaard splittings induced from twisted book decompositions. We show that there exist Heegaard splittings of distance 22 that have the infinite-order mapping class groups whereas that are not induced from open book decompositions. Explicit computation of those mapping class groups are given.
