Topologically Knotted Lagrangians in Simply Connected Four-manifolds
Vidussi was the first to construct knotted Lagrangian tori in simply connected four-dimensional manifolds. Fintushel and Stern introduced a second way to detect such knotting. This note demonstrates that similar examples may be distinguished by the fundamental group of the exterior.

متن کاملSymmetry Groups of Non-simply Connected Four-manifolds
LetM be a closed, connected, orientable topological four-manifold with H1(M) nontrivial and free abelian, b2(M) 6= 0, 2, and χ(M) 6= 0. Then the only finite groups which admit homologically trivial, locally linear, effective actions on M are cyclic. The proof uses equivariant cohomology, localization, and a careful study of the first cohomology groups of the (potential) singular set.
متن کاملOn 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 Manifolds of Positive Scalar Curvature
Hitchin proved that if M is a spin manifold with positive scalar curvature, then the A^O-characteristic number a(M) vanishes. Gromov and Lawson conjectured that for a simply connected spin manifold M of dimension > 5, the vanishing of a(M) is sufficient for the existence of a Riemannian metric on M with positive scalar curvature. We prove this conjecture using techniques from stable homotopy th...
