“…We review the definition and some facts from [Ze05] about the local genus of a point in a Cantor set in S 3 . At the end of this section, we relate the local genus of a point x in a Cantor set C ⊂ S 3 to the genus of an end x of the complementary 3-manifold S 3 \ C. We use IntX and FrX to denote the topological interior and boundary of a subset X of a space Y .…”

“…Section 2 provides details about the local genus of points in a Cantor set in S 3 (introduced in [Ze05]) and relates this to the genus of an end of the 3-manifold that is the complement of the Cantor set. Section 3 gives two replacement constructions we will need in the construction of our examples.…”

“…The genus of a Cantor set. To further classify Cantor sets embedded in R 3 , Željko [25] introduced a homeomorphic invariant called the genus of a Cantor set. Informally, this non-negative integer gives the smallest genus of handlebodies that are required by any defining sequence of the Cantor set.…”

“…There appear to be very few constructions of Cantor sets in R 3 which are proved to be of genus at least 2 in the literature. Željko's paper [25] does construct Cantor sets of every genus, including genus infinity, but is somewhat special in that there is one point of the Cantor set where the higher genus behavior happens, and elsewhere the Cantor set looks like an Antoine's necklace. A refinement of this construction, combined with a construction of Skora [24], is given in [12], although it is not shown that the genus is at least two.…”

“…Every Cantor set in R 3 has a defining sequence, proved by Armentrout [2] using different terminology, but the defining sequence is far from uniquely determined. Željko [25] introduced the notion of the genus of a Cantor set X as the infimum of the genus required in the handlebodies over all possible defining sequences for X. Then the genus of Antoine's necklace is 1 and the genus of a tame Cantor set is 0.…”
