On the Classification of $S^3$-Bundles over $\mathbb{C}{P}^2$

Abstract

This paper presents a classification of the total spaces of $S^3$-bundles over $\mathbb{C}{P}^2$ up to orientation-preserving homotopy equivalence. Our approach proceeds in two steps: we first derive the PL-homeomorphism classification for these manifolds by computing their Kreck-Stolz invariants. Then, building upon this PL classification result and through an application of surgery theory, we establish the homotopy equivalence classification.
