MPIM Lecture Hall
Parent event:
IMPRS Minicourse We will review several fundamental results regarding smooth and topological 4-manifolds, and demonstrate how to produce infinitely many exotic smooth structures on some basic 4-manifolds, in the hopes of showing that this is no black magic. This will be an introductory course; no prior knowledge, other than some familiarity with basic algebraic topology will be assumed.
