I am working with manifolds with boundary pattern, as defined by Matveev in his book Algorithmic Topology and Classification of 3-Manifolds. A manifold with boundary pattern is a pair $(M, P)$ where $...

The word problem for 3-manifold groups is solvable: given a based loop $\gamma$ in $M^3$ there is an algorithm to decide whether $\gamma$ bounds a disk. What kinds of quantitative results are known ...

I am looking for a bit of orientation with regards to computational topology resources, as I am personally totally ignorant on the subject. I have lots of different links in $S^3$ (hundreds of ...

I have been doing some statistical studies on small 3-manifolds, and I note that one can produce larg-ish censuses of triangulations in Regina. Now, the Regina documentation tells us how to convert a ...

Is there any software which can be used for computing Thurston's unit ball (for second homology of 3-manifolds) of link complements? In particular can I do that with SnapPy? PS: even a table for ...
