Topological surgery in the small and in the large

Published 11 Dec 2018 in math.GT and gr-qc | (1812.07975v1)

Abstract: We directly connect topological changes that can occur in mathematical three-space via surgery, with black hole formation, the formation of wormholes and new generalizations of these phenomena. This work widens the bridge between topology and natural sciences and creates a new platform for exploring geometrical physics.
