3-manifolds algorithmically bound 4-manifolds

This thesis presents an algorithm for producing 4–manifold triangulations with boundary an arbitrary orientable, closed, triangulated 3–manifold. The research is an extension of Costantino and Thurston’s work on determining upper bounds on the number of 4–dimensional simplices necessary to construct...
