Symplectic surfaces and bridge position
Peter Lambert-Cole
We give a new characterization of symplectic surfaces in CP^2 via bridge trisections. Specifically, a minimal genus surface in CP^2 is smoothly isotopic to a symplectic surface if…

Trisections of 5-manifolds
Peter Lambert-Cole, Maggie Miller
Gay and Kirby introduced the notion of a trisection of a smooth 4-manifold, which is a decomposition of the 4-manifold into three elementary pieces. Rubinstein and Tillmann later e…

Trisections, intersection forms and the Torelli group
Peter Lambert-Cole
We apply mapping class group techniques and trisections to study intersection forms of smooth 4-manifolds. Johnson defined a well-known homomorphism from the Torelli group of a com…
