摘要

Given a compact, oriented, connected surface F, we show that the set of connected sutured manifolds (M, γ) with R±(γ) ≌ F is generated by the product sutured manifold (F, ∂F) × [0, 1] through surgery triads. This result has applications in Floer theories of 3-manifolds. The special case where F = D2 or F = S2 has been a folklore theorem, which has already been used by experts before.
