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

NON-INTEGRAL TOROIDAL DEHN SURGERIES C. MCA. GORDON1 AND JOHN LUECKE2 1. Introduction If we perform a non-trivial Dehn surgery on a hyperbolic knot in the 3-sphere, the result is usually a hyperbolic 3-manifold. However,
