Incompressibility and Least-area Surfaces
We show that if F is a smooth, closed, orientable surface embedded in a closed, orientable 3-manifold M such that for each Riemannian metric g on M , F is isotopic to a least-area surface F (g), then F is incompressible.
متن کاملIncompressibility of Surfaces in Surgered 3-Manifolds
The problem we consider in this paper was raised in [3]. Suppose T is a torus on the boundary of an orientable 3-manifold X, and S is a surface on ∂X − T which is incompressible in X. A slope γ is the isotopy class of a nontrivial simple closed curve on T . Denote by X(γ) the manifold obtained by attaching a solid torus to X so that γ is the slope of the boundary of a meridian disc. Given two s...
متن کاملIncompressibility Criteria for Spun-normal Surfaces
We give a simple sufficient condition for a spun-normal surface in an ideal triangulation to be incompressible, namely that it is a vertex surface with nonempty boundary which has a quadrilateral in each tetrahedron. While this condition is far from being necessary, it is powerful enough to give two new results: the existence of alternating knots with noninteger boundary slopes, and a proof of ...
متن کاملIncompressibility of Products
We show that the conjectural criterion of p-incompressibility for products of projective homogeneous varieties in terms of the factors, previously known in a few special cases only, holds in general. We identify the properties of projective homogeneous varieties actually needed for the proof to go through. For instance, generically split (nonhomogeneous) varieties also satisfy these properties....
متن کاملIncompressibility of Orthogonal Grassmannians
We prove the following conjecture due to Bryant Mathews (2008). Let Q be the orthogonal grassmannian of totally isotropic i-planes of a non-degenerate quadratic form q over an arbitrary field (where i is an integer satisfying 1 ≤ i ≤ (dim q)/2). If the degree of each closed point on Q is divisible by 2 and the Witt index of q over the function field of Q is equal to i, then the variety Q is 2-i...
