Abstract

AbstractFollowing an example discovered by John Berge [2], we show that there is a 4-component link L ⊂ (S1 × S2)#(S1 × S2) so that, generically, the result of Dehn surgery on L is a 3-manifold with two inequivalent genus 2 Heegaard splittings, and each of these Heegaard splittings is of Hempel distance 3.
