Bordered Floer homology, handlebody detection, and compressing diffeomorphisms

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 114, Issue 4, October 2026.
Abstract We show that, up to connected sums with integer homology L$L$‐spaces, bordered Floer homology detects handlebodies, as well as whether a mapping class extends over a given handlebody or compression body. Using this, we combine ideas of Casson–Long with the theory of train tracks to give an algorithm using bordered Floer homology to detect ...
