Andrei Pajitnov (Université de Nantes)
Morse-Novikov theory for links (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Let M be a compact manifold with a non-empty boundary N, and x an element of the first cohomology group of M. We assume that the restriction of x to N can be represented by a fibration over a circle. The Morse-Novikov number MN(M,x) is the minimal possible number of critical points of a Morse map f of M to a circle, such that [f]=x, and the restriction of f to N is a fibration over the circle. In this talk we present our results about the Morse-Novikov numbers for the exteriors of links in 3-sphere. This is joint work with L. Chen and H. Endo.
