On the topology of compact Stein surfaces
Selman Akbulut, Burak Ozbagci
In this paper we obtain the following results: (1) Any compact Stein surface with boundary embeds naturally into a symplectic Lefschetz fibration over the 2-sphere. (2) There exist…

Commutators, Lefschetz fibrations and the signatures of surface bundles
H. Endo, M. Korkmaz, D. Kotschick +2
We construct examples of Lefschetz fibrations with prescribed singular fibers. By taking differences of pairs of such fibrations with the same singular fibers, we obtain new exampl…
