[ Abstract ]
We will talk about our novel examples of symplectic 4-manifolds, which are homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic to the standard simply-connected closed 4-manifolds with signature zero. In particular, they provide such examples with the smallest Euler characteristics known to date. Our method employs the time-honored approach of reverse-engineering, while the key new ingredients are the model manifolds that we build from scratch as Lefschetz fibrations. Notably, our method greatly simplifies pi_1 calculations, typically the most intricate aspect in existing literature.
This is joint work with Inanc Baykur (University of Massachusetts Amherst).
