Profinite detection of 3-manifold decompositions

Abstract

The profinite completion of the fundamental group of a closed, orientable 3-manifold determines the Kneser--Milnor decomposition. If M is irreducible, then the profinite completion determines the Jaco--Shalen--Johannson decomposition of M.
