Minimal layered-triangulation conjecture for lens spaces
Minimal layered-triangulation conjecture for lens spaces
Let be a lens space, and call a triangulation minimal if it has the smallest number of tetrahedra among triangulations of . A minimal layered-triangulation of is a layered-triangulation with the smallest number of tetrahedra among all layered-triangulations of . Minimal layered-triangulation conjecture for lens spaces. With the exceptions of , and , a minimal triangulation of a lens space is a minimal layered-triangulation. The source explains the three exceptions and notes that the asserted relationship is tied to the structure of layered triangulations and the classification of lens spaces; the claim is presented without a resolution in the supplied text.
