Abstract The main result of this paper is the following Theorem 1. Let 4 be a smooth compact bounded 4-manifold, which is geometrically simply-connected at long distance. It is assumed that @4 is a homology sphere. Then the open manifold int(4#1#(S2×D2)) is geometrically simply connected. The setting for this result is the diff category. Together with our earlier results it implies the Corollary 2. If 3 is a homotopy 3-ball then int((3×I)#1#(S2×D2)) is geometrically simply connected. This is one of the links which was missing in our program for the Poincaré Conjecture.

Abstract
Abstract The main result of this paper is the following Theorem 1. Let 4 be a smooth compact bounded 4-manifold, which is geometrically simply-connected at long distance. It is assumed that @4 is a homology sphere. Then the open manifold int(4#1#(S2×D2)) is geometrically simply connected. The setting for this result is the diff category. Together with our earlier results it implies the Corollary 2. If 3 is a homotopy 3-ball then int((3×I)#1#(S2×D2)) is geometrically simply connected. This is one of the links which was missing in our program for the Poincaré Conjecture.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
