\begin{thm} Any polygonal disk with edges identified in pairs is
homeomorphic to a compact, connected,
triangulated
$2$-manifold.

\begin{thm} Any compact, connected, triangulated $2$-manifold is
homeomorphic to a polygonal disk with
edges identified in pairs.

\end{thm}

\begin{exercise}  The boundary of a tetrahedron is naturally
triangulated with a
triangulation $T$ consisting of four
$2$-simplexes together with their six edges and four vertices. On the
boundary of a tetrahedron
locate the first and second derived subdivisions of $T$, the
$1$-skeleton of $T$, the regular
neighborhood of the $1$-skeleton of $T$, the regular neighborhoods of
a vertex and an edge of
$T$, and the dual $1$-skeleton of $T$.
\end{exercise}

\begin{exercise}
On the accompanying pictures of the second derived subdivisions of triangulations of the torus and the Klein bottle,
find regular neighborhoods of subsets of the $1$-skeleton.
\end{exercise}

\begin{exercise}
Characterize graphs in the $1$-skeleton of $T$ for the triangulations
of the sphere, torus, and projective plane whose regular neighborhoods are
homeomorphic to a disk.

\be
\item[1.] The bigon with edges identified by $aa^{-1}$ is
homeomorphic to $\Sph^2$.
\item[2.] The bigon with edges identified by $bb$ is homeomorphic to $\PP^2$.
\item[3.] The square with edges identified by $cdc^{-1}d^{-1}$ is
homeomorphic to $\T^2$.

\begin{thm}[connected sum relation]
\index{surface!connected sum relation}\index{connected sum!surface, relation}
 The gluing of a square given by
  $ccdd$ is homeomorphic to $\PP^2\#\PP^2$ and the gluing of an octagon given by
$aba^{-1}b^{-1}cdc^{-1}d^{-1}$ is homeomorphic  to $\T^2\#\T^2$.
\end{thm}

\begin{question} Generalize the above to the connected sum of any two surfaces.
\end{question}

\begin{thm} Let $Abb^{-1}C$ be a string of $2n$ letters where each
letter occurs twice, with or without a
superscript (so $A$ and $C$ should each be construed as being
comprised of many letters). Then the
$2$-manifold obtained by identifying a $2n$-gon following the gluing
$Abb^{-1}C$ is homeomorphic to the
$2$-manifold which is obtained by identifying a $(2n-2)$-gon following
the gluing given by
$AC$.
\end{thm}

\begin{thm} Suppose a $2$-manifold $M^2$ is represented by a $2n$-gon
with edges identified in pairs. Then
a homeomorphic $2$-manifold can be represented by a $2k$-gon with
edges identified in pairs where all the
vertices are in the same equivalence class, that is, all the vertices
are identified to each other.
\end{thm}

\begin{thm} Suppose a $2$-manifold $M^2$ is represented by a $2n$-gon
with edges identified in pairs. Then
a homeomorphic $2$-manifold can be represented by a $2k$-gon with
edges identified in pairs where all the
vertices are identified and every pair of edges with the same
orientation are consecutive.
\end{thm}

\begin{thm} Suppose a $2$-manifold $M^2$ is represented by a $2n$-gon
with edges identified in pairs. Then
a homeomorphic $2$-manifold can be represented by a $2k$-gon with
edges identified in pairs where all the
vertices are identified, every pair of edges with the same
orientation are consecutive, and all other edges
are grouped in disjoint sets of two intertwined pairs following the
pattern $aba^{-1}b^{-1}$.
\end{thm}

\begin{thm} The $2$-manifold represented by $aba^{-1}b^{-1}cc$ is
homeomorphic to the $2$-manifold
represented by $ddeeff$.
\end{thm}

\begin{question}
Re-state the above theorem in terms of connected sum.
\end{question}

\begin{thm} Any compact, connected, triangulated $2$-manifold is
homeomorphic to a $2n$-gon with edges
identified in pairs as specified in one of the three following ways:
$aa^{-1}$, or
$a_0a_0a_1a_1\ldots a_na_n$ (where $n\geq 0$) or
$a_0a_1a_{0}^{-1}a_{1}^{-1}\ldots a_{n-1}a_na_{n-1}^{-1}a_{n}^{-1}$
(where $n\geq 1$ is odd ).
\end{thm}

\begin{thm}[Classification of compact, connected $2$-manifolds]
\index{$2$-manifold!Classification Theorem}
Any connected, compact, triangulated 2-manifold is
homeomorphic to  the 2-sphere
$\Sph^2$, a connected sum of tori, or a connected sum of  projective planes.
