AbstractWe define fat train tracks and use them to give a combinatorial criterion for the Hempel distance of Heegaard splittings for closed orientable 3-manifolds. We apply this criterion to 3-manifolds obtained from surgery on knots in S3
In this paper, we show that, for any integers n≥2 and g≥2, there exist genus-g Heegaard splittings o...
