    Trisecting a 4-dimensional book into three chapters

    We describe an algorithm that takes as input an open book decomposition of a closed oriented 4-manifold and outputs an explicit trisection diagram of that 4-manifold. Moreover, a slight variation of this algor...

    The Classification of Surfaces via Normal Curves

    We present a simple proof of the surface classification theorem using normal curves. This proof is analogous to Kneser’s and Milnor’s proof of the existence and uniqueness of the prime decomposition of 3-manif...

    A Boothby–Wang Theorem for Besse Contact Manifolds

    A Reeb flow on a contact manifold is called Besse if all its orbits are periodic, possibly with different periods. We characterize contact manifolds whose Reeb flows are Besse as principal
