Self-Referential Discs and the Light Bulb Lemma
David Gabai
We show how self-referential discs in 4-manifolds lead to the construction of pairs of discs with a common geometrically dual sphere which are homotopic rel , concordant…

Geometric Methods In Heegaard Theory
Tobias Holck Colding, David Gabai, Daniel Ketover
We survey some recent geometric methods for studying Heegaard splittings of 3-manifolds
