Surface Bundles over Surfaces with Arbitrarily Many Fiberings

چکیده
In this paper we give the first example of a surface bundle over a surface with at least three fiberings. In fact, for each n ≥ 3 we construct 4-manifolds E admitting at least n distinct fiberings pi : E → Σgi as a surface bundle over a surface with base and fiber both closed surfaces of negative Euler characteristic. We give examples of surface bundles admitting multiple fiberings for which the monodromy representation has image in the Torelli group, showing the necessity of all of the assumptions made in the main theorem of our recent paper [Sal14]. Our examples show that the number of surface bundle structures that can be realized on a 4-manifold E with Euler characteristic d grows exponentially with d.

Cup Products, the Johnson Homomorphism, and Surface Bundles over Surfaces with Multiple Fiberings
Let Σg → E → Σh be a surface bundle over a surface with monodromy representation ρ : π1Σh → Mod(Σg) contained in the Torelli group Ig. In this paper we express the cup product structure in H∗(E,Z) in terms of the Johnson homomorphism τ : Ig → ∧(H1(Σg ,Z)). This is applied to the question of obtaining an upper bound on the maximal n such that p1 : E → Σh1 , . . . , pn : E → Σhn are fibering maps...
متن کاملSymplectic Submanifolds from Surface Fibrations
We give a simple construction yielding homology classes in (non-simply-connected) symplectic four-manifolds which admit infinitely many pairwise non-isotopic symplectic representatives. Examples are constructed in which the symplectic curves can have arbitrarily large genus. The examples are built from surface bundles over surfaces and involve only elementary techniques. As a corollary we see t...
متن کاملExistence of Vector Bundles and Global Resolutions for Singular Surfaces
We prove two results about vector bundles on singular algebraic surfaces. First, on proper surfaces there are vector bundles of rank two with arbitrarily large second Chern number and fixed determinant. Second, on separated normal surfaces any coherent sheaf is the quotient of a vector bundle. As a consequence, for such surfaces the Quillen K-theory of vector bundles coincides with the Waldhaus...
متن کاملModuli Spaces of Vector Bundles over a Klein Surface
A compact topological surface S, possibly non-orientable and with non-empty boundary, always admits a Klein surface structure (an atlas whose transition maps are dianalytic). Its complex cover is, by definition, a compact Riemann surface M endowed with an anti-holomorphic involution which determines topologically the original surface S. In this paper, we compare dianalytic vector bundles over S...
متن کاملSurface Bundles with Genus Two Heegaard Splittings
It is known that there are surface bundles of arbitrarily high genus which have genus two Heegaard splittings. The simplest examples are Seifert fibered spaces with the sphere as a base space, three exceptional fibers and which allow horizontal surfaces. We characterize the monodromy maps of all surface bundles with genus two Heegaard splittings and show that each is the result of integral Dehn...
