Will we ever classify simply-connected smooth 4-manifolds? | | Ronald J. Stern
; | | Date: |
8 Feb 2005 | | Subject: | Geometric Topology; Symplectic Geometry MSC-class: 57R55, 57R57, 14J26, 53D05 | math.GT math.SG | | Abstract: | These notes are adapted from two talks given at the 2004 Clay Institute Summer School on Floer homology, gauge theory, and low dimensional topology at the Alfred Renyi Institute. We will quickly review what we do and do not know about the existence and uniqueness of smooth and symplectic structures on closed, simply-connected 4-manifolds. We will then list the techniques used to date and capture the key features common to all these techniques. We finish with some approachable questions that further explore the relationship between these techniques and whose answers may assist in future advances towards a classification scheme. | | Source: | arXiv, math.GT/0502164 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
