Gradient-like flows on 3-manifolds. (English) Zbl 0822.57013

The author’s abstract: “We determine properties that a Lyapunov graph must satisfy for it to be associated with a gradient-like flow on a closed orientable 3-manifold. We also address the question of the realization of abstract Lyapunov graphs as gradient-like flows on 3- manifolds and as a byproduct, we prove a partial converse to the theorem which states the Morse inequalities for closed orientable 3-manifolds. We also present cancellation theorems of nondegenerate critical points for flows which arise as realizations of classical abstract Lyapunov graphs”.
