There is a relation between the generalized Property R Conjecture and the Schoenflies Conjecture that suggests a new line of attack on the latter. The approach gives a quick proof of the genus 2 Schoenflies Conjecture and suffices to prove the genus 3 case, even in the absence of new progress on the generalized Propert…

Approaches 4D Schoenflies via pseudo-isotopy.
problem Smooth 4D Schoenflies conjecture.
method Pseudo-isotopy theory.
result Offers new approach to 4D Schoenflies.
The stable Andrews-Curtis conjecture in combinatorial group theory is the statement that every balanced presentation of the trivial group can be simplified to the trivial form by elementary moves corresponding to "handle-slides" together with "stabilization" moves. Schoenflies conjecture is the statement that the compl…
This is the announcement of an alternative approach to the 3-dimensional Poincaré Conjecture, different from Perelman's big and spectacular breakthrough. No claim concerning the other parts of the Thurston Geometrization Conjecture, come with our purely 4-dimensional line of argument.

In this paper we prove a new version of the Schoenflies extension theorem for collared domains in Euclidean n-space: for 1 < p < n, locally bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms between collared domains with locally p-integrable, second-order weak derivatives admit homeomorphic extensions of the same regularity. Moreover, the th…
Calegari's 4-spheres from fibered knots are proven standard.
problem Proving Calegari's 4-spheres from fibered knots are standard.
method 5-dimensional handlebody techniques and mapping class groups of 3-dimensional handlebodies.
result All Calegari's homotopy 4-spheres from fibered knots are diffeomorphic to the standard 4-sphere.
We show that a smooth embedding of a closed 3-manifold in S^3 x R can be isotoped so that every generic level divides S^3 x t into two handlebodies (i.e., is Heegaard) provided the original embedding has a unique local maximum with respect to the R coordinate. This allows uniqueness of embeddings to be studied via the …

This is an expository paper giving a proof of the existence and uniqueness of smooth structures (hence also PL structures) on topological surfaces. Most published proofs rely on the topological Schoenflies theorem, but here we use instead the Kirby torus trick. This has the advantage of reducing the point-set topology …
We give a general treatment of the somewhat unfamiliar operation on manifolds called Connected Sum at Infinity, or CSI for short. A driving ambition has been to make the geometry behind the well definition and basic properties of CSI as clear and elementary as possible. CSI then yields a very natural and elementary pro…

The graph theoretic de…
