Jan 23 at 20:37 | comment | added | user515519 | What do you mean by "Is it well characterized?" ? One way to describe it, is that it looks like a usual cylinder $[0,1]\times \mathbb{S}^1$ with the property that the projection of any circle $\{t\}\times \mathbb{S}^1$, with $0<t<1$, on $\{0\}\times \mathbb{S}^1$ becomes a $3-$fold cover in the quotient. And similarly, the projection of $\{t\}\times \mathbb{S}^1$ on $\{1\}\times \mathbb{S}^1$ becomes a $2-$fold cover in the quotient. | |
