چکیده
This paper is a synthesis and extension of three earlier papers on $PD_4$-complexes $X$ with fundamental group $\pi$ such that $c.d.\pi=2$ has one end. Our goal to show the homotopy types complexes are determined by $\pi$, Stiefel-Whitney classes equivariant intersection pairing $\pi_2(X)$. We achieve this under further conditions $\pi$.

Pd4-complexes and 2-dimensional Duality Groups
This paper is a synthesis and extension of three earlier papers on PD4-complexes X with fundamental group π such that c.d.π = 2 and π has one end. Our goal is to show that the homotopy types of such complexes are determined by π, the Stiefel-Whitney classes and the equivariant intersection pairing on π2(X). We achieve this under further conditions on π. It remains an open problem to give a homo...
متن کاملCoarse Alexander Duality and Duality Groups
We study discrete group actions on coarse Poincare duality spaces, e.g. acyclic simplicial complexes which admit free cocompact group actions by Poincare duality groups. When G is an (n − 1) dimensional duality group and X is a coarse Poincare duality space of formal dimension n, then a free simplicial action G y X determines a collection of “peripheral” subgroups H1, . . . , Hk ⊂ G so that the...

متن کاملSome questions on subgroups of 3-dimensional Poincaré duality groups
We state a number of open questions on 3-dimensional Poincaré duality groups and their subgroups, motivated by considerations from 3-manifold topology. AMS Subject classification (1985): Primary 57N10, Secondary 57M05, 20J05
متن کاملTopology of 2-dimensional Complexes
We present results concerning geometric topology of 2-dimensional polyhedra, with emphasis on those related to the problem of embeddability into 3-manifolds (and thickenings), the problem of resolving arbitrary 2-polyhedra by fake surfaces (including an application to reduce the classical Whitehead asphericity conjecture to special polyhedra) and existence of nonhomeomorphic 3-manifolds with eq...
