Waldhausen’s Theorem [36] tells us that Heegaard splittings of the three-sphere areunique up to isotopy. This is an important tool in low-dimensional topology andthere are several modern proofs (Jaco and Rubinstein [16], Rieck [28] Rubinstein andScharlemann [31] and Scharlemann and Thompson [33]). Additionally, at least twosurvey articles on Heegaard splittings (Johnson [17] and Scharlemann [32]) includeproofs of Waldhausen’s Theorem.This note is intended as an exposition of Waldhausen’s original proof, as his techniquesare still of interest. See, for example, Bartolini and Rubinstein’s [3] classification ofone-sided splittings of RP
