Bounding the Dehn surgery number by 10/8

Beibei Liu ⟨bbliumath@gmail.com⟩

Abstract:

In this talk, we provide new examples of 3-manifolds with weight one fundamental group and the same integral homology as the lens space L(2k,1) which are not surgery on any knot in the three sphere. Our argument uses Furuta’s 10/8-theorem, and is simple and combinatorial to apply. This is joint work with Piccirillo.
