Abstract

In this paper, we define the minimality of a partition for a critical Heegaard surface. The standard minimal genus Heegaard surface of [Formula: see text], which is known to be critical, admits a minimal partition. Moreover, we give an example of a critical surface that admits both a minimal partition and a non-minimal partition.
