Cobordism, Relative Indices and Stein Fillings
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we build on the framework developed in [7, 8, 9] to obtain a more complete understanding of the gluing properties for indices of boundary value problems for the SpinC-Dirac operator with sub-elliptic boundary conditions. We extend our analytic results for sub-elliptic boundary value problems for the SpinC-Dirac operator, and gluing results for the indices of these boundary problems to SpinCmanifolds with several pseudoconvex (pseudoconcave) boundary components. These results are applied to study Stein fillability for compact, 3-dimensional, contact manifolds.

متن کاملSingularity Links with Exotic Stein Fillings
In [4], it was shown that there exist infinitely many contact Seifert fibered 3-manifolds each of which admits infinitely many exotic (homeomorphic but pairwise non-diffeomorphic) simply-connected Stein fillings. Here we extend this result to a larger set of contact Seifert fibered 3-manifolds with many singular fibers and observe that these 3-manifolds are singularity links. In addition, we pr...
متن کاملMapping class group relations, Stein fillings, and planar open book decompositions
The aim of this paper is to use mapping class group relations to approach the ‘geography’ problem for Stein fillings of a contact 3-manifold. In particular, we adapt a formula of Endo and Nagami so as to calculate the signature of such fillings as a sum of the signatures of basic relations in the monodromy of a related open book decomposition. We combine this with a theorem of Wendl to show tha...
متن کاملExotic Stein Fillings with Arbitrary Fundamental Group
For any finitely presentable group G, we show the existence of an isolated complex surface singularity link which admits infinitely many exotic Stein fillings such that the fundamental group of each filling is isomorphic to G. We also provide an infinite family of closed exotic smooth four-manifolds with the fundamental groupG such that each member of the family admits a non-holomorphic Lefsche...
