Let $Crit M$ denote the minimal number of critical points (not necessarily non-degenerate) on a closed smooth manifold $M$. We are interested in the evaluation of $Crit$. It is worth noting that we do not know yet whether $Crit M$ is a…

The Heegaard genus of a 3-manifold, as well as the growth of Heegaard genus in its finite sheeted cover spaces, has extensively been studied in terms of algebraic, geometric and topological properties of the 3-manifold. This note shows that…

Let M be a closed orientable 3-manifold with a negatively curved Riemannian metric. Let {M_i} be a collection of finite regular covers with degree d_i. (1) If the Heegaard genus of M_i grows more slowly than the square root of d_i, then M_i…

Let $G$ be a finite group and ${\rm cd}(G)$ denote the set of complex irreducible character degrees of $G$. In this paper, we prove that if $G$ is a finite group and $H$ is an almost simple group with socle $H_{0}= \, ^{2}{\rm G}_{2}(q)$,…

We prove that if $K_1 \subset M_1,...,K_n \subset M_n$ are m-small knots in closed orientable 3-manifolds then the Heegaard genus of $E(#_{i=1}^n K_i)$ is strictly less than the sum of the Heegaard genera of the $E(K_i)$ ($i=1,...,n$) if…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the fundamental group of the space of Heegaard splittings of an irreducible $3$-manifold to be finitely generated. The condition is exactly the conclusion of the thick isotopy lemma proved by…

We use thin position of Heegaard splittings to give a new proof of Haken's Lemma that a Heegaard surface of a reducible manifold is reducible and of Scharlemann's ``Strong Haken Theorem'': a Heegaard surface for a 3-manifold may be isotoped…

The global behaviour of nonlinear systems is extremely important in control and systems theory since the usual local theories will only give information about a system in some neighbourhood of an operating point. Away from that point, the…

Given a group $G$, its lattice of subgroups $\mathcal{L}(G)$ can be viewed as a simplicial complex in a natural way. The inclusion of $1_G, G \in \mathcal{L}(G)$ implies that $\mathcal{L}(G)$ is contractible, and so we study the topology of…

In the present paper we consider class $G$ of orientation preserving Morse-Smale diffeomorphisms $f$, which defined on closed 3-manifold $M^3$, and whose non-wandering set consist of four fixed points with pairwise different Morse indices.…

A fundamental theorem of Wilson states that, for every graph $F$, every sufficiently large $F$-divisible clique has an $F$-decomposition. Here a graph $G$ is $F$-divisible if $e(F)$ divides $e(G)$ and the greatest common divisor of the…

A set $D$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is a dominating set if each vertex of $V(G)\setminus D$ is adjacent to some vertex of $D$. The domination number of $G$, $\gamma(G)$, is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of $G$. A graph $G$ is…

The mapping class group of a Heegaard splitting is the group of connected components in the set of automorphisms of the ambient manifold that map the Heegaard surface onto itself. For the genus three Heegaard splitting of the 3-torus, we…

We show that terminal 3-fold divisorial contraction to a point of index $>1$ with non-minimal discrepancy may be factored into a sequence of flips, flops and divisorial contractions to a point with minimal discrepancies.

We show that any finitely generated non-elementary Kleinian group has a co-final family of finite index normal subgroups with respect to which it has Property $\tau$. As a consequence, any closed hyperbolic 3-manifold has a co-final family…

For the genus-$4$ Heegaard surface in the $3$-sphere, we present a sufficient condition for a non-separating weak reducing pair to be separated by a reducing sphere for the surface. As a consequence, we reduce the connectivity problem in…

Let M be a closed manifold and f be a diffeomorphism on M. We show that if f has a nontrivial dominated splitting TM=E\oplus F, then f can not be minimal. The proof mainly use Mane's argument and Liao's selecting lemma.

We show that if $M$ is a fibered, orientable 3-manifold, and if $\pi_1 M$ has 1-relator presentation, then the presentation is induced by a Heegaard splitting of $M$. A corollary is that, for these manifolds, the rank of $\pi_1 M$ is equal…

We prove that for "most" closed 3-dimensional manifolds $M$, the existence of a closed non singular one-form in a given cohomology class $u\in H^1 (M,\bf R)$ is equivalent to the fact that every twisted Alexander polynomial $\Delta^H(M,u)…

A contact form $\lambda$ on a closed contact three-manifold $(M,\xi)$ is called weakly convex if either it has no contractible Reeb orbit, or the first Chern class of $\xi$ vanishes on $\pi_2(M)$, and the index of every contractible Reeb…
