Relative Smooth Surgery Structure Sets of Thickenings of the Cayley Projective Plane and Applications

Souvik Mandal, Ankur Sarkar

We compute the relative smooth surgery structure sets of the thickenings ${\mathbb{OP}}^2\times {\mathbb{D}}^k$ of the Cayley projective plane ${\mathbb{OP}}^2$ for every $k\ge 1$…
