The present paper is a survey of up-to-date results in 3-dimensional crystallization theory, in particular along the following directions: - generation and analysis of catalogues of PL-manifolds for increasing values of the vertex number of the representing graphs; - definition and/or computation of invariants for PL-manifolds, directly from the representing graphs. In particular, with regard to invariants, the authors focus on gems considered as an useful tool for computing Matveev complexity.

Abstract
The present paper is a survey of up-to-date results in 3-dimensional crystallization theory, in particular along the following directions: - generation and analysis of catalogues of PL-manifolds for increasing values of the vertex number of the representing graphs; - definition and/or computation of invariants for PL-manifolds, directly from the representing graphs. In particular, with regard to invariants, the authors focus on gems considered as an useful tool for computing Matveev complexity.File in questo prodotto:
