3-manifolds that bound no definite 4-manifold
Marco Golla, Kyle Larson
We produce a rational homology 3-sphere that does not smoothly bound either a positive or negative definite 4-manifold. Such a 3-manifold necessarily cannot be rational homology co…
Symplectic isotopy of rational cuspidal sextics and septics
Marco Golla, Fabien Kütle
We classify rational cuspidal curves of degrees 6 and 7 in the complex projective plane, up to symplectic isotopy. The proof uses topological tools, pseudoholomorphic techniques, a…
Surgeries on torus knots, rational balls, and cabling
Paolo Aceto, Marco Golla, Kyle Larson +1
We classify which positive integral surgeries on positive torus knots bound rational homology balls. Additionally, for a given knot K we consider which cables K(p,q) admit integral…
Non-orientable slice surfaces and inscribed rectangles
Peter Feller, Marco Golla
We discuss differences between genera of smooth and locally-flat non-orientable surfaces in the 4-ball with boundary a given torus knot or 2-bridge knot. In particular, we establis…
Heegaard Floer homology and concordance bounds on the Thurston norm
Daniele Celoria, Marco Golla
We prove that twisted correction terms in Heegaard Floer homology provide lower bounds on the Thurston norm of certain cohomology classes determined by the strong concordance class…
