Conjugation of Morse Function on 3-Manifolds

arXiv:math/9812150

Abstract

The questions when two Morse function on closed manifolds are conjugated is investigated. Using the handle decompositions of manifolds the condition of conjugation is formulated. For each Morse function on 3-manifold the ordered generalized Heegaard diagram is built. The criteria of Morse function conjugation are given in the terms of equivalence of such diagrams.
