  • Published:
Journal of Mathematical Sciences Aims and scope Submit manuscript

We investigate the topological properties, structures, and classifications of the Morse flows with fixed points on the boundary of three-dimensional manifolds. We construct a complete topological invariant of a Morse flow, namely, P r-diagram, which is similar to the Heegaard diagram of a closed three-dimensional manifold.
