We have established in [S3] an algorithm with a new data structure that decomposes gluing homeomorphisms of 3-manifolds given by planar Heegaard diagrams into a product of canonical Dehn's twists. To support this study, we developed a computer software called Decomposition of Planar Homeomorphisms (Genus 3) that automatically decomposes the self homeomorphis of a closed connected surface given by any planar Heegaard diagram of genus 3 into a product of canonical Dehn's twists. In this paper, we demonstrate the content and the implementation that this software holds and also show its availability.

The present paper investigates Heegaard diagrams of non-orientable closed $3$-manifolds, i.e. a non-orienable closed surface together with two sets of meridian disks of both handlebodies. It is found all possible non-orientable genus $2$ Heegaard diagrams of complexity less than $6$. Topological properties of Morse flows on closed smooth non-orientable $3$-manifolds are described. Normalized Heegaard diagrams are furhter used for classification Morse flows with a minimal number of singular points and singular trajectories

In the paper, we give an equivalent description of the lens space [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] prime in terms of any corresponding Heegaard diagrams as follows: Let [Formula: see text] be a closed orientable 3-manifold with [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] a Heegaard splitting of genus [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text] with an associated Heegaard diagram [Formula: see text]. Assume [Formula: see text] is a prime integer. Then [Formula: see text] is homeomorphic to the lens space [Formula: see text] if and only if there exists an embedding [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] bounds a complete system of surfaces for [Formula: see text].

We give a genus 3 Heegaard diagramHof the real projective spacep3, which has no waves and pairs of complementary handles. So Negami's result that every genus 2 Heegaard diagram ofp3is reducible cannot be extended to Heegaard diagrams ofp3with genus 3.

We describe a correspondence between Turaev surfaces of link diagrams on S2 ⊂ S3 and special Heegaard diagrams for S3 adapted to links.

A (1,1) knot K in a 3-manifold M is a knot that intersects each solid torus of a genus 1 Heegaard splitting of M in a single trivial arc. Choi and Ko developed a parametrization of this family of knots by a four-tuple of integers, which they call Schubert's normal form. This paper presents an algorithm for constructing a genus 1 doubly-pointed Heegaard diagram compatible with K, given a Schubert's normal form for K. The construction, coupled with results of Ozsváth and Szabó, provides a practical way to compute knot Floer homology groups for (1,1) knots. The construction uses train tracks, and its method is inspired by the work of Goda, Matsuda, and Morifuji.
