Decompositions of the 3-sphere and lens spaces with three handlebodies
arXiv:2012.11861
Abstract
In this paper, we consider decompositions of 3-manifolds with three handlebodies. We classify such decompositions of the 3-sphere and lens spaces with small genera. These decompositions admit operations called stabilizations. We also determine whether these decompositions are stabilized.
