Non-orientable 3-manifolds of small complexity
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: We classify all closed non-orientable P2-irreducible 3-manifolds having complexity up to 6 and we describe some having complexity 7. We show in particular that there is no such manifold with complexity less than 6, and that those having complexity 6 are precisely the 4 flat non-orientable ones and the filling of the Gieseking manifold, which is of type Sol. The manifolds having complexity 7 we describe are Seifert manifolds of type H2 x S1 and a manifold of type Sol.
If \(M\) is a \(\mathbb{P}^2\)-irreducible compact 3-manifold and not \(S^3\), \(\mathbb{RP}^3\), or \(L_{3,1}\), the complexity of \(M\), \(c(M)\), is the smallest number of tetrahedra possible in a triangulation of \(M\). The authors examine such 3-manifolds \(M\) with \(c(M)\leqslant 7\). They show there are none with \(c(M)\leqslant 5\), 4 with \(c(M)=6\), and when \(c(M)=7, M\) can be \(\mathbb{H}^2\times S^1\) or of type \textbf{Sol} or have a non-trivial \textbf{JSJ} decomposition.
