This will be an introductory talk and will give background information for the talk she will give in the Topology seminar on High Distance Knots in Any 3-manifold. Title: High Distance Heegaard Splittings Abstract: Any 3-dimensional manifold can be decomposed into two simple pieces: a Heegaard splitting. A Heegaard splitting can be regarded as a pair of subcomplexes in the complex of curves of the Heegaard surface. It is possible to relate geometric and combinatorial pro ...
