    Handle additions on a small hyperbolic 3-manifold

    Qiu, Ruifeng and Wang, Shicheng
    ( Click here for pdf version )

    We will provide a small hyperbolic 3-manifold $M$ such that for every $g>1$, there are infinitely many isotopy classes of separating curves $r$ on $\partial M$ such that the manifold obtained by doing a handle addition on $M$ along $r$ contains an essential closed surface of genus $g$.
