A short proof of Bing's characterization of $S^{3}$

Yo'av Rieck

We give a short proof of Bing's characterization of $S^{3}$ : a compact, connected 3-manifold $M$ is $S^{3}$ if and only if every knot in $M$ is isotopic into a ball.

Heegaard genus of the connected sum of m-small knots

Tsuyoshi Kobayashi, Yo'av Rieck

We prove that if $K_{1} \subset M_{1}, ..., K_{n} \subset M_{n}$ are m-small knots in closed orientable 3-manifolds then the Heegaard genus of $E(#_{i=1}^n K_i)$ is strictly less than the su…
