Heegaard splittings with large subsurface distances
arXiv:1002.3095 · doi:10.2140/agt.2010.10.2251
Abstract
We show that sub-surfaces of a Heegaard surface for which the relative Hempel distance of the splitting is sufficiently high have to appear in any Heegaard surface of genus bounded by half that distance.
