In low-dimensional topology, the trigenus of a closed 3-manifold is an invariant consisting of an ordered triple . It is obtained by minimizing the genera of three ''orientable'' handle bodies — with no intersection between their interiors— which decompose the manifold as far as the Heegaard genus need only two. That is, a decomposition with for and being the genus of . For orientable spaces, , where is 's Heegaard genus. For non-orientable spaces the has the form depending on the image of the first Stiefel–Whitney characteristic class under a Bockstein homomorphism, respectively for It has been proved that the number has a relation with the concept of Stiefel–Whitney surface, that is, an orientable surface which is embedded in , has minimal genus and represents the first Stiefel–Whitney class under the duality map , that is, . If then , and if then . ==Theorem== A manifold ''S'' is a Stiefel–Whitney surface in ''M'', if and only if ''S'' and ''M−int(N(S))'' are orientable . 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Trigenus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
