Cyclic Group Actions on Contractible 4-manifolds Nima Anvari and Ian Hambleton
There are known infinite families of Brieskorn homology 3-spheres which can be realized as boundaries of smooth contractible 4-manifolds. In this paper we show that smooth free periodic actions on these Brieskorn spheres do not extend smoothly over a contractible 4-manifold. We give a new infinite family of examples in which the actions extend locally linearly but not smoothly.
متن کاملSurvey on Aspherical Manifolds
This is a survey on known results and open problems about closed aspherical manifolds, i.e., connected closed manifolds whose universal coverings are contractible. Many examples come from certain kinds of non-positive curvature conditions. The property aspherical, which is a purely homotopy theoretical condition, implies many striking results about the geometry and analysis of the manifold or i...
متن کاملComputations of Floer Homology for Certain Lagrangian Tori in Closed 4-manifolds
We compute the Lagrangian Floer cohomology groups of certain tori in closed simply connected symplectic 4-manifolds arising from FintushelStern knot surgery. These manifolds are usually not symplectically aspherical. As a result of the computation we observe examples where HF (L0) = HF (L1) and L0 and L1 are smoothly isotopic but L0, L1 are not symplectically isotopic and are distinguished by H...
متن کاملSome Examples of Aspherical Symplectic Four-manifolds
We give examples of aspherical symplectic 4-manifolds, which are formal in the sense of rational homotopy theory but have degenerate Lefschetz pairings. (preliminary version) Compact Kähler manifolds have a number of topological properties which are not shared by general symplectic manifolds, see [1] for example. In particular, Kähler manifolds have the following cohomological properties: 1. th...
متن کاملCasson–type Invariants in Dimension Four Daniel Ruberman and Nikolai Saveliev
This article surveys our ongoing project about the relationship between invariants extending the classical Rohlin invariant of homology spheres and those coming from 4–dimensional (Yang-Mills) gauge theory; it will appear in the Proceedings of the Fields-McMaster Conference on Geometry and Topology of Manifolds. We are mainly concerned with a special class of manifolds for which the two types o...
