Exotic diffeomorphisms on a contractible 4-manifold surviving two stabilizations
Sungkyung Kang, JungHwan Park, Masaki Taniguchi
We develop a -equivariant refinement of the lattice homotopy type for computing equivariant Seiberg--Witten Floer homotopy types. As an applica…

On the connected sums of the -cable of the figure eight knot
Yoshihiro Fukumoto, Masaki Taniguchi
We show that the 3-fold (resp. 6-fold) connected sum of the -cable of the figure-eight knot cannot bound a smooth null-homologous disk in a punctured (resp.…

Exotic Dehn twists and homotopy coherent group actions
Sungkyung Kang, JungHwan Park, Masaki Taniguchi
We consider the question of extending a smooth homotopy coherent finite cyclic group action on the boundary of a smooth 4-manifold to its interior. As a result, we prove that Dehn…
