We first identify MATH with MATH as follows: for MATH define MATH by MATH it is straightforward to check that this defines a degree - preserving functor and thus an element of MATH. Under this identification MATH for all MATH, MATH. As in the proof of CITE define a map MATH as follows: for MATH with MATH set MATH where...

Since MATH is defined to be the universal MATH - algebra generated by the MATH's subject to the relations REF and MATH preserves these relations it is clear that it defines an action of MATH on MATH. The rest of the proof follows in the same manner as that of CITE (see CITE).

For every MATH let MATH be the closed linear span of elements of the form MATH with MATH. Fix MATH, MATH with MATH we claim that MATH if MATH. If MATH then by REF there are MATH, MATH with MATH and MATH such that MATH; but then we have MATH . Thus MATH and hence by the factorisation property MATH. Consequently MATH by ...

Observe that the map MATH given by MATH satisfies MATH . The first part of the result then follows from REF. To show that MATH is amenable we first observe that MATH is amenable. Since MATH is amenable, we may apply CITE to deduce that MATH is amenable. Since MATH is strongly NAME equivalent to the crossed product of a...

The first statement follows from the second with MATH; indeed, by REF there is a functor MATH such that MATH in an equivariant way. The second statement follows from applying CITE to the natural MATH-action on MATH. The final statement follows from the identifications MATH and CITE.

Let MATH be a normal arc. Let MATH be the two regions of MATH that contain MATH. Let MATH be a REF - normal surface.

In Construction REF, we have MATH by REF . The iteration stops after MATH steps, thus MATH using MATH. Since MATH equals twice the number of edges of MATH, we have MATH, and the lemma follows.
math/0007032
It is to show that any REF - normal sphere MATH is isotopic mod MATH to a component of MATH. Let MATH be the component of MATH that contains MATH. If MATH contains a REF - normal fundamental projective plane MATH, then MATH by Construction REF. Thus MATH, which is isotopic mod MATH to a component of MATH. Hence we can ...
math/0007032
Let MATH be a REF - normal sphere with exactly one octagon. If MATH contains a REF - normal fundamental projective plane MATH, then MATH by Construction REF, and any pre-normal surface in MATH is a multiple of MATH, that is, is REF - normal. Thus since MATH is not REF - normal, there is no REF - normal fundamental proj...
math/0007032
Set MATH. Let MATH be a lower compressing disc for MATH. One can assume that a collar of MATH in MATH is contained in MATH. Then, since by REF, any point in MATH is endpoint of an arc in MATH. Therefore there is a sub-disc MATH, bounded by parts of MATH and of arcs in MATH, that is a lower compressing disc for one of M...
math/0007032
If MATH comprises more than a single point then the string of MATH is contained in the string of MATH. Thus MATH contains an arc different from the base of MATH, bounding in MATH a lower compressing disc, that forms with MATH a pair of nested upper and lower compressing discs for MATH. Assume that a component MATH of M...

Let MATH be a compressing disc for MATH. Choose MATH and MATH up to isotopy of MATH mod MATH so that MATH is almost REF - normal and MATH is minimal. Choose an innermost component MATH, which is possible as MATH. There is a closed tetrahedron MATH of MATH and a component MATH of MATH that is a disc, such that MATH. Let...
math/0007032
We choose MATH up to isotopy of MATH in MATH so that MATH is minimal in lexicographic order. Assume that MATH. Then, there is a tetrahedron MATH, a REF - simplex MATH, a component MATH of MATH, and a component MATH of MATH with MATH. Since MATH is REF - normal, the closure MATH of one component of MATH is a disc with M...

Let MATH be a graph isomorphic to MATH. Since MATH is a copy of MATH, there is an embedding MATH with MATH, MATH, and MATH is the union of the normal arcs in MATH. Let MATH be a circle that does not meet MATH. Then, MATH bounds a disc MATH. The two components of MATH are discs. One of them is disjoint to MATH, since ot...
math/0007032
By hypothesis, MATH, and MATH has no lower compressing discs. Thus by REF , MATH has no lower compressing discs. Therefore its upper reduction MATH has no lower compressing discs. Assume that MATH is not almost REF - normal. Then MATH has a compressing disc MATH that is contained in a single tetrahedron MATH (see CITE)...
math/0007032
By the previous lemma, MATH is almost REF - normal. Recall that one obtains MATH up to isotopy mod MATH by splitting MATH along splitting discs that do not meet MATH. Assume that there is an arc MATH joining MATH with MATH. Let MATH be the component of MATH that contains MATH. By hypothesis, MATH is connected. Thus MAT...
math/0007032
If MATH, then the sphere MATH is REF - normal. It is not isotopic mod MATH to a component of MATH, since MATH. This contradicts the maximality of MATH.
math/0007032
Let MATH be REF - normal. We first consider the case where there is an almost REF - normal sphere MATH in MATH that has a compressing disc MATH, with string MATH and base MATH. We choose MATH innermost, so that MATH. In particular, MATH. Assume that MATH. Since MATH, there is an arc MATH that connects the endpoints of ...
math/0007032
By REF , there is an arc MATH that connects two components of MATH, say, MATH with MATH. By REF , MATH is contained in an edge of MATH. By REF - normal surfaces MATH have no lower compressing discs. Let MATH be a system of MATH arcs, such that the tube sum MATH of MATH along MATH is a sphere and an upper reduction MATH...
math/0007032
We apply REF to MATH, and together with the elementary reduction along MATH we obtain a sphere MATH with an almost REF - normal upper reduction MATH. One concludes MATH and the existence of MATH as in the proof of the previous lemma.
math/0007032
We apply REF with MATH to lower reductions of MATH, which is possible by symmetry. Thus, together with the elementary reduction along MATH, there is a lower reduction MATH of MATH, and MATH by REF . Since MATH and MATH, it follows MATH. Since MATH separates MATH from MATH, it follows MATH odd, thus MATH.
math/0007032
We give here just an outline. A complete proof can be found in CITE. Let MATH be an impermeable surface. By definition, it has upper and lower bonds with strings MATH. By isotopies mod MATH, one obtains from MATH two surfaces MATH, such that MATH has a return MATH with MATH, for MATH. A surface that has both upper and ...
math/0007032
Two octagons in different tetrahedra of MATH give rise to a pair of independent upper and lower compressing discs for MATH. Two octagons in one tetrahedron of MATH give rise to a pair of nested upper and lower compressing discs for MATH. Both is a contradiction to the impermeability of MATH.
math/0007032
By hypothesis, MATH has both upper and lower bonds. Assume that MATH does not contain octagons, that is, it is almost REF - normal. We will obtain a contradiction to the impermeability of MATH by showing that MATH has a pair of independent or nested compressing discs. According to REF , we can assume that MATH has a co...

math/0007035
The beginning of the proof is the same in all three cases. Note that MATH has a good filtration, simply because MATH for all MATH. Thus MATH also has a good filtration and so this induces a good filtration MATH on MATH such that MATH for all MATH. By REF , there exists MATH such that MATH for all MATH. Similarly, the r...
math/0007035
Let MATH be a left and right NAME filtration of MATH. Then REF implies that the induced filtration MATH on MATH is left and right NAME and so MATH is left (and right) noetherian. By CITE the growth of MATH is subexponential. By REF , MATH induces a good filtration on MATH as a left and a right MATH-module, which contra...
math/0007035
For REF , repeat the proof of REF , but with REF replaced by REF . For REF , use the proof of REF , applied to the opposite ring MATH, with REF replaced by REF .
math/0007035
Suppose that such a filtration MATH exists. By CITE the filtration MATH is also complete (in the natural sense that NAME sequences modulo the MATH should converge - see CITE). Thus CITE implies that the filtration is right NAME and the result follows REF .
math/0007035
Assume that MATH is not torsion. Replacing MATH by MATH, for some MATH, we may assume that MATH. Thus, REF implies that there exists MATH such that MATH for all MATH. Since MATH for MATH, this implies that MATH. Now consider MATH. Since MATH is a good filtration, MATH is finitely generated. We claim, for all MATH, that...
math/0007035
Suppose that such a filtration MATH exists. Let MATH be the induced filtration on MATH and MATH the induced filtration on MATH. Then MATH is a good left filtration and so MATH is finitely generated. The torsion submodule MATH of MATH is a MATH-bimodule and so we may pass to MATH without affecting the hypotheses (althou...

The diagonal matrices of the form MATH clearly form a subring MATH of MATH isomorphic to MATH. Since MATH is finitely generated as a left or right MATH-module, it follows that MATH is a finitely generated noetherian PI algebra. It is prime since it contains a nonzero ideal of the prime ring MATH. Suppose that MATH is a...
math/0007035
Notice that MATH, the ring from REF, and so MATH has no left noetherian finite filtration. Since MATH, the same is true on the right.
math/0007035
The proof that MATH is prime noetherian PI algebra over MATH is analogous to that for REF and is left to the reader. Clearly MATH is a complete local ring. In order to complete the proof it suffices, by REF , to work in a factor ring and we chose: MATH . The nilradical MATH of MATH is the set of strictly upper triangul...

The ring MATH is just the ring MATH from REF, and so does satisfy the hypotheses of the first paragraph. Set MATH . It is easy to see that MATH is generated by MATH and MATH and hence one has the standard MATH-filtration MATH, MATH and MATH for MATH. Let MATH and MATH be the images of MATH and MATH in MATH. Then, MATH ...
math/0007035
It is clear that MATH is a dualizing module for itself. By CITE one has natural isomorphisms: MATH for any finitely generated left MATH-module MATH. This implies that the injective dimension of MATH is bounded by the injective dimension of MATH. A similar assertion holds for MATH. It follows from CITE that MATH and MAT...
math/0007035
We check that the hypotheses of the lemma are satisfied for MATH. Since MATH is a free left MATH-module of rank two and a free right MATH-module of rank three, the proof is a routine computation which we will only outline. One first checks that, under the natural module structures, MATH where MATH is the matrix unit. I...

math/0007036
For MATH we get the NAME complex in degree MATH and so the specialized complex at a point MATH is exact if and only if MATH is a regular sequence, that is, if and only if the resultant does not vanish. The fact that the determinant of this complex equals the resultant goes back to ideas of NAME; for a proof see CITE, C...
math/0007036
Since MATH is a regular sequence in MATH the dimensions of the graded pieces of the quotient MATH in degrees MATH and MATH are MATH and MATH respectively. We can then choose blocks MATH and MATH as in REF such that MATH and MATH have maximal rank. Suppose without loss of generality that the blocks MATH and MATH have re...
