Ribbon cobordisms as a partial order (2204.12372v3)
Published 26 Apr 2022 in math.GT
Abstract: We show that the notion of ribbon rational homology cobordism yields a partial order on the set of aspherical $3$-manifolds, thus supporting a conjecture formulated by Daemi, Lidman, Vela-Vick and Wong. Our proof is built on Agol's recent proof of the fact that ribbon concordance yields a partial order on the set of knots in the 3-sphere.
