Additivity of Heegaard genera under annulus sum

UDC 515.162 Let $M$ be a compact 3-manifold containing an essential annulus $A$  separating $M$ into two manifolds $M_1$ and $M_2.$ We prove that if, for each $i=1,2,$ $g(M_i) \geq 2$  and $M_i$ admits a Heegaard splitting with Heegaard distance not smaller than $2\bigl(g(M_1) + g(M_2)\bigr) - 1,$ t...
