Please Note: A three-manifold is a space that locally looks like the Euclidean three-dimensional space. The study of three-manifolds has been at the heart of many beautiful constructions in low dimensional topology. This talk will provide a quick tour through some fundamental results about three-manifolds that were discovered between the late nineteenth century and the Fifties.
