HILDEN, Mike; MONTESINOS, José M.; TEJADA, Débora e TORO, Margarita. Representing 3-manifolds by triangulations of S3: a constructive approach. Rev.colomb.mat. [online]. 2005, vol.39, n.2, pp.63-86. ISSN 0034-7426.
A triangulation Δ of S3 defines uniquely a number m ≤ 4; a subgraph T of Δ and a representation ω(Δ) of Π1(S3\T) into Σm: It is shown that every (K,ω), where K is a knot or link in S3 and ω is transitive representation of Π1(S3\K) in Σm, 2 ≤ m ≤ 3, equals ω(Δ), for some Δ. From this, a representation of closed, orientable 3-manifolds by triangulations of S3 is obtained. This is a theorem of Izmestiev and Joswig, but, in contrast with their proof, the methods in this paper are constructive. Some generalizations are given. The method involves a new representation of knots and links, which is called a butter y representation.
