Thurston norm and L2-Betti numbers (Gerrit Herrmann, University of Regensburg)
23.11.2017 14:15
In my talk I will define the Thurston norm of a closed irreducible 3-manifold M. This is a semi-norm on the second homology H2(M;Z). Morally speaking it measures the complexity of a class by embedded surfaces representing this class. I will then characterize embeddings of surfaces which release the Thurston norm by certain L2-Betti numbers.
