Topology of 4-Manifolds-How to construct 4-Manifolds
Speaker: Prof. Jongil Park (Seoul National University)

Time: 10h45 - 11h45, Friday, October 19, 2018

Location: Grand Hall, Building A6, Institute of Mathematics, 18B Hoang Quoc Viet, Cau Giay, Hanoi

Abstract: One of the fundamental problems in the classification of 4-manifolds topology is to find/construct a new family of 4-manifolds which were not known before.
In this talk, I’d like to review various known techniques such as blowing-up, fiber-sum, Logarithmic transform, rational blow-down surgervy, Luttinger surgery and knot surgery which produce a new family of 4-manifolds in smooth, symplectic and complex categories.
