Abstract: | Let M be a compact orientable manifold, and F be an essential closed surface which cuts M into two 3-manifolds M
1 and M
2. Let be a Heegaard splitting for i = 1, 2. We denote by d(S
i
) the distance of . If d(S
1), d(S
2) ≥ 2(g(M
1) + g(M
2) − g(F)), then M has a unique minimal Heegaard splitting up to isotopy, i.e. the amalgamation of and .
