For the purposes of this paper, Dehn surgery along a curve K in a 3-manifold M with slope r is `exceptional' if the resulting 3-manifold M_K(r) is reducible or a solid torus, or the core of the surgery solid torus has finite order in the fundamental group of M_K(r). We show that, providing the exterior of K is irreduci…

We study a class of exceptional minimal surfaces in spheres for which all Hopf differentials are holomorphic.

We prove the "End Curve Theorem," which states that a normal surface singularity (X,o)(X,o) with rational homology sphere link ΣΣ is a splice-quotient singularity if and only if it has an end curve function for each leaf of a good resolution tree. An "end-curve function" is an analytic function $(X,o)\to (\C,0)$ whose ze…
