Diffeomorphism Groups of Reducible 3-Manifolds Allen Hatcher In a 1979 announcement by C´esar de S´a and Rourke [CR] there is a sketch of an intuitively appealing approach to measuring the difference between the homoto

A Short Exposition of the Madsen-Weiss Theorem Allen Hatcher The theorem of Madsen and Weiss [MW] identifies the homology of mapping class groups of surfaces, in a stable dimension range, with the homology of a certain i

Measured Lamination Spaces for 3-Manifolds Allen Hatcher One of Thurston’s important contributions to surface theory is his construction of measured lamination spaces. These spaces originally arose because their projec

A 50 -Year View of Diffeomorphism Groups Allen Hatcher Question: For a smooth compact manifold M can one determine the homotopy type of its diffeomorphism group Diff(M) ? Why this is interesting:
