Detailed Description

Represents a blocked Seifert fibred space with two boundary tori that are joined together.

This is a particular type of triangulation of a graph manifold, formed from a single saturated region whose two torus boundaries are identified. An optional layering may be placed between the two torus boundaries to allow for a more interesting relationship between the two sets of boundary curves. For more detail on saturated regions and their constituent saturated blocks, see the SatRegion class; for more detail on layerings, see the Layering class.

The saturated region may have two boundary components formed from one saturated annulus each. Alternatively, it may have one boundary formed from two saturated annuli, where this boundary is pinched together so that each annulus becomes a two-sided torus (both of which are later joined together). None of the boundary components (or the two-sided tori discussed above) may be twisted (i.e., they must be tori, not Klein bottles).

The way in which the two torus boundaries are identified is specified by a 2-by-2 matrix, which expresses curves representing the fibres and base orbifold on the second boundary in terms of such curves on the first boundary (see the page on Notation for Seifert fibred spaces for terminology).

More specifically, suppose that f0 and o0 are directed curves on the first boundary torus and f1 and o1 are directed curves on the second boundary torus, where f0 and f1 represent the fibres of the region and o0 and o1 represent the base orbifold. Then the boundaries are joined according to the following relation:

    [f1]       [f0]
    [  ] = M * [  ]
    [o1]       [o0]

If a layering is present between the two torus boundaries, then the corresponding boundary curves are not identified directly. In this case, the matrix M shows how the layering relates the curves on each boundary.

Note that the routines writeName() and writeTeXName() do not offer enough information to uniquely identify the triangulation, since this essentially requires 2-dimensional assemblings of saturated blocks. For full details, writeTextLong() may be used instead.

The optional StandardTriangulation routine manifold() is implemented for this class, but homology() is not.

This class implements C++ move semantics and adheres to the C++ Swappable requirement. It is designed to avoid deep copies wherever possible, even when passing or returning objects by value. Note, however, that the only way to create objects of this class (aside from copying or moving) is via the static member function recognise().

srcthe structure to move from.

Member Function Documentation

◆ detail()

std::string regina::Output< StandardTriangulation , false >::detail ( ) const
inherited

Returns a detailed text representation of this object.

This text may span many lines, and should provide the user with all the information they could want. It should be human-readable, should not contain extremely long lines (which cause problems for users reading the output in a terminal), and should end with a final newline. There are no restrictions on the underlying character set.

Returns
a detailed text representation of this object.

◆ homology()

virtual AbelianGroup regina::StandardTriangulation::homology ( ) const
virtualinherited

Returns the expected first homology group of this triangulation, if such a routine has been implemented.

This routine does not work by calling Triangulation<3>::homology() on the associated real triangulation. Instead the homology is calculated directly from the known properties of this standard triangulation.

This means that homology() needs to be implemented separately for each class of standard triangulation. See the class notes for each subclass of StandardTriangulation for details on whether homology has been implemented for that particular subclass. The default implementation of this routine just throws a NotImplemented exception.

Most users will not need this routine, since presumably you already have an explicit Triangulation<3> available and so you can just call Triangulation<3>::homology() instead (which, unlike this routine, is always implemented). This StandardTriangulation::homology() routine should be seen as more of a verification/validation tool for the Regina developers.

If this StandardTriangulation describes an entire Triangulation<3> (and not just a part thereof) then the results of this routine should be identical to the homology group obtained by calling Triangulation<3>::homology() upon the associated real triangulation.

Exceptions
NotImplementedHomology calculation has not yet been implemented for this particular type of standard triangulation.
FileErrorThe homology needs to be read from file (as opposed to computed), but the file is inaccessible or its contents cannot be read and parsed correctly. Currently this can only happen for the subclass SnapPeaCensusTri, which reads its results from the SnapPea census databases that are installed with Regina.
Returns
the first homology group of this triangulation, if this functionality has been implemented.

Reimplemented in regina::LayeredChain, regina::LayeredChainPair, regina::LayeredLensSpace, regina::LayeredLoop, regina::LayeredSolidTorus, regina::LayeredTorusBundle, regina::SnapPeaCensusTri, regina::SnappedBall, regina::SpiralSolidTorus, regina::TriSolidTorus, and regina::TrivialTri.

◆ manifold()

std::unique_ptr< Manifold > regina::BlockedSFSLoop::manifold ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns the 3-manifold represented by this triangulation, if such a recognition routine has been implemented.

If the 3-manifold cannot be recognised then this routine will return null.

The details of which standard triangulations have 3-manifold recognition routines can be found in the notes for the corresponding subclasses of StandardTriangulation. The default implementation of this routine returns null.

It is expected that the number of triangulations whose underlying 3-manifolds can be recognised will grow between releases.

Returns
the underlying 3-manifold.

Reimplemented from regina::StandardTriangulation.

◆ matchingReln()

const Matrix2 & regina::BlockedSFSLoop::matchingReln ( ) const
inline

Returns the matrix describing how the two torus boundaries of the saturated region are joined.

Note that if a layering is placed between the two boundary tori, then any changes to the boundary relationships caused by the layering are included in this matrix.

See the class notes above for precise information on how this matrix is presented.

Returns
the matrix describing how the boundaries of the region are joined.

◆ name()

std::string regina::StandardTriangulation::name ( ) const
inherited

Returns the name of this specific triangulation as a human-readable string.

Returns
the name of this triangulation.

◆ operator!=()

bool regina::BlockedSFSLoop::operator!= ( const BlockedSFSLoop other) const
inline

Determines whether this and the given structure do not represent the same type of self-identified blocked Seifert fibred space.

Specifically, two structures will compare as equal if and only if both structures are formed from the same combinatorial presentation of a saturated region (as returned by the SatRegion comparison operators), with the two torus boundaries joined using the same 2-by-2 matrix.

This test follows the general rule for most subclasses of StandardTriangulation (excluding fixed structures such as SnappedBall and TriSolidTorus): two objects compare as equal if and only if they have the same combinatorial parameters (which for this subclass is more specific than combinatorial isomorphism, since this test does not account for the many symmetries in a blocked Seifert fibred space).

Parameters
otherthe structure with which this will be compared.
Returns
true if and only if this and the given structure do not represent the same type of self-identified blocked Seifert fibred space.

◆ operator=() [1/2]

BlockedSFSLoop & regina::BlockedSFSLoop::operator= ( BlockedSFSLoop &&  src)
defaultnoexcept

Moves the contents of the given structure into this structure.

This is a constant time operation.

The structure that was passed (src) will no longer be usable.

Parameters
srcthe structure to move from.
Returns
a reference to this structure.

◆ operator=() [2/2]

BlockedSFSLoop & regina::BlockedSFSLoop::operator= ( const BlockedSFSLoop src)
default

Sets this to be a copy of the given structure.

This will induce a deep copy of src.

Parameters
srcthe structure to copy.
Returns
a reference to this structure.

◆ operator==()

bool regina::BlockedSFSLoop::operator== ( const BlockedSFSLoop other) const
inline

Determines whether this and the given structure represent the same type of self-identified blocked Seifert fibred space.

Specifically, two structures will compare as equal if and only if both structures are formed from the same combinatorial presentation of a saturated region (as returned by the SatRegion comparison operators), with the two torus boundaries joined using the same 2-by-2 matrix.

This test follows the general rule for most subclasses of StandardTriangulation (excluding fixed structures such as SnappedBall and TriSolidTorus): two objects compare as equal if and only if they have the same combinatorial parameters (which for this subclass is more specific than combinatorial isomorphism, since this test does not account for the many symmetries in a blocked Seifert fibred space).

Parameters
otherthe structure with which this will be compared.
Returns
true if and only if this and the given structure represent the same type of self-identified blocked Seifert fibred space.

◆ recognise() [1/2]

static std::unique_ptr< StandardTriangulation > regina::StandardTriangulation::recognise ( Component< 3 > *  component)
staticinherited

Determines whether the given component represents one of the standard triangulations understood by Regina.

The list of recognised triangulations is expected to grow between releases.

If the standard triangulation returned has boundary triangles then the given component must have the same corresponding boundary triangles, i.e., the component cannot have any further identifications of these boundary triangles with each other.

Note that the triangulation-based routine recognise(const Triangulation<3>&) may recognise more triangulations than this routine, since passing an entire triangulation allows access to more information.

Parameters
componentthe triangulation component under examination.
Returns
the details of the standard triangulation if the given component is recognised, or null otherwise.

◆ recognise() [2/2]

static std::unique_ptr< BlockedSFSLoop > regina::BlockedSFSLoop::recognise ( const Triangulation< 3 > &  tri)
static

Determines if the given triangulation is a blocked Seifert fibred space with identified boundaries, as described by this class.

This function returns by (smart) pointer for consistency with StandardTriangulation::recognise(), which makes use of the polymorphic nature of the StandardTriangulation class hierarchy.

Parameters
trithe triangulation to examine.
Returns
a structure containing details of the blocked self-identified Seifert fibred space, or null if the given triangulation is not of this form.

◆ region()

const SatRegion & regina::BlockedSFSLoop::region ( ) const
inline

Returns details of the saturated region from which this triangulation is formed.

See the class notes above for further information.

Returns
details of the saturated region.

◆ str()

std::string regina::Output< StandardTriangulation , false >::str ( ) const
inherited

Returns a short text representation of this object.

This text should be human-readable, should use plain ASCII characters where possible, and should not contain any newlines.

Within these limits, this short text ouptut should be as information-rich as possible, since in most cases this forms the basis for the Python __str__() and __repr__() functions.

Python
The Python "stringification" function __str__() will use precisely this function, and for most classes the Python __repr__() function will incorporate this into its output.
Returns
a short text representation of this object.

◆ swap()

void regina::BlockedSFSLoop::swap ( BlockedSFSLoop other)
inlinenoexcept

Swaps the contents of this and the given structure.

Parameters
otherthe structure whose contents should be swapped with this.

◆ texName()

std::string regina::StandardTriangulation::texName ( ) const
inherited

Returns the name of this specific triangulation in TeX format.

No leading or trailing dollar signs will be included.

Warning
The behaviour of this routine has changed as of Regina 4.3; in earlier versions, leading and trailing dollar signs were provided.
Returns
the name of this triangulation in TeX format.

◆ utf8()

std::string regina::Output< StandardTriangulation , false >::utf8 ( ) const
inherited

Returns a short text representation of this object using unicode characters.

Like str(), this text should be human-readable, should not contain any newlines, and (within these constraints) should be as information-rich as is reasonable.

Unlike str(), this function may use unicode characters to make the output more pleasant to read. The string that is returned will be encoded in UTF-8.

Returns
a short text representation of this object.

◆ writeName()

std::ostream & regina::BlockedSFSLoop::writeName ( std::ostream &  out) const
overridevirtual

Writes the name of this triangulation as a human-readable string to the given output stream.

Python
Not present. Instead use the variant name() that takes no arguments and returns a string.
Parameters
outthe output stream to which to write.
Returns
a reference to the given output stream.

Implements regina::StandardTriangulation.

◆ writeTeXName()

std::ostream & regina::BlockedSFSLoop::writeTeXName ( std::ostream &  out) const
overridevirtual

Writes the name of this triangulation in TeX format to the given output stream.

No leading or trailing dollar signs will be included.

Warning
The behaviour of this routine has changed as of Regina 4.3; in earlier versions, leading and trailing dollar signs were provided.

Implements regina::StandardTriangulation.

◆ writeTextLong()

void regina::BlockedSFSLoop::writeTextLong ( std::ostream &  out) const
overridevirtual

This may be reimplemented by subclasses, but the parent StandardTriangulation class offers a reasonable default implementation based on writeTextShort().

Python
Not present. Use detail() instead.
Parameters
outthe output stream to which to write.

Reimplemented from regina::StandardTriangulation.

◆ writeTextShort()

void regina::StandardTriangulation::writeTextShort ( std::ostream &  out) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Writes a short text representation of this object to the given output stream.

This may be reimplemented by subclasses, but the parent StandardTriangulation class offers a reasonable default implementation based on writeName().
