Our manifolds are all surface bundles over the circle with genus two surface fiber. For the manifolds so obtained, we then examine whether they are of Heegaard genus two or not. As a byproduct, we give an infinite family of fibered knots of genus two in the 3-sphere whose knot groups are of rank two.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-12-24T14:13:11.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57N10", "57M05", "57M50", "57M25" ], "keywords": [ "fundamental groups", "surface bundles", "construction", "experimental search", "knot groups" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1012.5401I" } } }
