A sufficient condition is stated for non-separating weak reducing pairs to be separated by reducing spheres on the genus-4 Heegaard surface in S^3, thereby reducing the connectivity problem in the reducing sphere complex to spheres disjoint from a fixed non-separating compressing disk.

A note on reducing spheres for the genus-4 Heegaard surface in the 3-sphere
A sufficient condition is stated for non-separating weak reducing pairs to be separated by reducing spheres on the genus-4 Heegaard surface in S^3, thereby reducing the connectivity problem in the reducing sphere complex to spheres disjoint from a fixed non-separating compressing disk.
