This construction is the generalisation to handlebodies of the condition for gluing three solid tori to produce non-Haken Seifert fibered 3-manifolds with infinite fundamental group. It is shown that there is an efficient algorithm to decide if a gluing of handlebodies meets the disk-condition. Also an outline for the construction of the characteristic variety (JSJ decomposition) in such manifolds is given. Some non-Haken and atoroidal examples are given.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2007-01-31T02:50:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "handlebody", "injective handlebodies", "infinite fundamental group", "paper looks", "produce non-haken seifert" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 36, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math......1718C" } } }
