Irreducible Heegaard Splittings in Seifert Fibered Manifolds

Student-Run Geometry/Topology Seminar

Speaker: Michael Ponce, UC Davis
Location: 2112 MSB
Start time: Thu, Oct 19 2017, 2:10PM

I will discuss the results of a paper by Moriah and Schultens describing irreducible Heegaard splittings of Seifert fibered manifolds with orientable base space. No previous knowledge of 3-manifold topology will be assumed.
