On Simply-connected 4-manifolds
This paper concerns (but does not succeed in performing) the diffeomorphism classification of closed, oriented, differential, simply-connected 4-manifolds. It arises out of the observation (due to Pontrjagin and Milnor [2]) that if two such manifolds Mx and M2 have isomorphic quadratic forms of intersection numbers on #2(Jft-), then there is a map / : M1-^-Mi which is a homotopy equivalence and...
متن کاملSimply Connected Symplectic 4-manifolds with B
In this article we construct a new family of simply connected symplectic 4-manifolds with b+2 = 1 and c 2 1 = 2 which are not diffeomorphic to rational surfaces by using rational blow-down technique. As a corollary, we conclude that a rational surface CP ♯7CP 2 admits an exotic smooth structure.
متن کاملSystolic Inequalities and Massey Products in Simply-connected Manifolds
We show that the existence of a nontrivial Massey product in the cohomology ring H∗(X) imposes global constraints upon the Riemannian geometry of a manifold X . Namely, we exhibit a suitable systolic inequality, associated to such a product. This generalizes an inequality proved in collaboration with Y. Rudyak, in the case when X has unit Betti numbers. The inequality is a volume lower bound, a...
متن کاملThe Stable Mapping Class Group of Simply Connected 4-manifolds
We consider mapping class groups Γ(M) = π0Diff(M fix ∂M) of smooth compact simply connected oriented 4–manifolds M bounded by a collection of 3– spheres. We show that if M contains CP 2 or CP 2 as a connected summand then all Dehn twists around 3–spheres are trivial, and furthermore, Γ(M) is independent of the number of boundary components. By repackaging classical results in surgery and handle...
متن کاملA DECOMPOSITION OF SMOOTH SIMPLY-CONNECTED h-COBORDANT 4-MANIFOLDS
Introduction and the Statement. In [A] S. Akbulut obtained an example of the exotic manifold cutting off the contractible submanifold from the standard manifold and regluing it via nontrivial involution of the boundary. In these notes we give a proof of a decomposition theorem stated below. It generalizes the example of Akbulut. Another proof of the theorem was independently obtained by C.L. Cu...
