The Powell Conjecture states that the Goeritz group of the Heegaard splitting of the $3$-sphere is finitely generated; furthermore, four specific elements suffice to generate the group. Zupan demonstrated that the conjecture holds if and…
The Powell Conjecture offers a finite generating set for the genus $g$ Goeritz group, the group of automorphisms of $S^3$ that preserve a genus $g$ Heegaard surface $\Sigma_g$, generalizing a classical result of Goeritz in the case $g=2$.…
For a genus $g$ Heegaard splitting of the $3$-sphere, the Goeritz group is defined to be the group of isotopy classes of diffeomorphisms of the $3$-sphere that preserve the splitting setwise. In this paper, we prove the following conjecture…
In 1980 J. Powell proposed that, for every genus $g$, five specific elements suffice to generate the Goeritz group $\mathcal {G}_g$ of genus $g$ Heegaard splittings of $S^3$. Powell's Conjecture remains undecided for $g \geq 4$. Let…
In 1980 J. Powell proposed that five specific elements sufficed to generate the Goeritz group of any Heegaard splitting of $S^3$, extending work of Goeritz on genus $2$ splittings. Here we prove that Powell's conjecture was correct for…
In 1980 J. Powell proposed that five specific elements sufficed to generate the Goeritz group of any Heegaard splitting of $S^3$. This conjecture remains unresolved for genus $g \geq 4$. Here a short argument shows that one of his proposed…
Let $p$ be a fixed prime number, and $N$ be a large integer. The 'Inverse Conjecture for the Gowers norm' states that if the "$d$-th Gowers norm" of a function $f:\F_p^N \to \F_p$ is non-negligible, that is larger than a constant…
The Goeritz group of the standard genus-g Heegaard splitting of the three sphere, $G_g$, acts on the space of isotopy classes of reducing spheres for this Heegaard splitting. Scharlemann MR2199366 (2007c:57020) uses this action to prove…
An updated proof of a 1933 theorem of Goeritz, exhibiting a finite set of generators for the group of automorphisms of the 3-sphere that preserve a genus two Heegaard splitting. The group is analyzed via its action on a certain connected…
In 1980 J. Powell \cite{Po} proposed that five specific elements sufficed to generate the Goeritz group for any genus Heegaard splitting of the 3-sphere. Here we prove that a natural expansion of Powell's proposed generators, to include all…
The main target of this thesis is to solve the Perron's conjecture. This conjecture affirms that some function on the mod p Torelli group, with values in Z/p, is an invariant of mod p homology 3-spheres. In order to solve this conjecture,…
The article has been withdrawn by the author. Wolfgang Lueck and Peter Linnell pointed out that the proof of Lemma 3.8 does not apply to the unrestricted case of wreath product. It is not clear at this stage how to complete the proof of…
v1: In this paper, we will give an elementary proof by the Heegaard splittings of the 3-dimentional Poincare conjecture in point of view of PL topology. This paper is of the same theory in [4](1983) excluding the last three lines of the…
We prove that the mapping class groups of the genus 3 Heegaard splittings of the connected sum of two lens spaces are finitely generated, and the corresponding reducing sphere complexes are all connected.
The Generalized Smale Conjecture asserts that if M is a closed 3-manifold with constant positive curvature, then the inclusion of the group of isometries into the group of diffeomorphisms is a homotopy equivalence. For the 3-sphere, this…
In this article, we generalise a result of Pottmeyer from the multiplicative group of the algebraic numbers to almost split semiabelian varieties defined over number fields. This concerns a consequence of R\'emond's generalisation of…
The $g$-theorem is a momentous result in combinatorics that gives a complete numerical characterization of the face numbers of simplicial convex polytopes. The $g$-conjecture asserts that the same numerical conditions given in the…
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…
In the article math.AG/0102085, Lemma 5.5 was false. Hence the decomposition theorem (Theorem 5.8) and all statements in Section 7 are not proved.
The smooth rational homology cobordism group of rational homology three spheres, T, contains subgroups T_p generated by 3-manifolds with first homology p-torsion, where p is a prime. Rochlin's theorem and gauge theoretic methods show that…
