Cobordism Theorem and Simply-Connected 3-Manifold

چکیده
Every compact smooth simply connected 3-manifold is a twisted 3-sphere, so every smooth simply connected 3-manifold is diffeomorphic to S.

On the Homology Cobordism Group of Homology 3-spheres
In this paper we present our results on the homology cobordism group Θ3Z of the oriented integral homology 3-spheres. We specially emphasize the role played in the subject by the gauge theory including Floer homology and invariants by Donaldson and Seiberg – Witten. A closed oriented 3-manifold Σ is said to be an integral homology sphere if it has the same integral homology as the 3-sphere S. T...
متن کاملSmooth Surfaces with Non-simply-connected Complements
We give two constructions of surfaces in simply-connected 4-manifolds with non simply-connected complements. One is an iteration of the twisted rim surgery introduced by the first author [7]. We also construct, for any group G satisfying some simple conditions, a simply-connected symplectic manifold containing a symplectic surface whose complement has fundamental group G. In each case, we produ...
متن کاملManifolds with Tti
In this note we announce some results extending results of S. P. Novikov ([6] and [7]), the author [2], and C. T. C. Wall [8]. In the above papers it is shown how to characterize the homotopy type of 1-connected smooth closed manifolds of dimension w ^ S , « ^ 2 mod 4, and how to reduce the diffeomorphy classification of such manifolds to homotopy theory, with similar results for bounded manifo...
متن کاملTopology of Homology Manifolds
We construct examples of nonresolvable generalized «-manifolds, n > 6 , with arbitrary resolution obstruction, homotopy equivalent to any simply connected, closed «-manifold. We further investigate the structure of generalized manifolds and present a program for understanding their topology. By a generalized n-manifold we will mean a finite-dimensional absolute neighborhood retract X such that ...
متن کاملSMOOTH NONTRIVIAL ^DIMENSIONAL s-COBORDISMS
This announcement exhibits smooth 4-dimensional manifold triads (W;Mo,Mi) which are s-cobordisms, i.e. the inclusions Mi Ç W, i = 0,1, are simple homotopy equivalences, but are not diffeomorphic or even homeomorphic to a product Mi x [0,1]. The Barden-Mazur-Stallings s-cobordism theorem constitutes one of the foundational stones of modern topology. It asserts, in the smooth, piecewiselinear, or...
