Aspherical 4-manifolds of odd Euler characteristic
Allan L. Edmonds
An explicit construction of closed, orientable, smooth, aspherical 4-manifolds with any odd Euler characteristic greater than 12 is presented. The manifolds constructed here are al…
Euler characteristics of generalized Haken manifolds
Michael W. Davis, Allan L. Edmonds
Haken n-manifolds have been defined and studied by B. Foozwell and H. Rubinstein in analogy with the classical Haken manifolds of dimension 3, based upon the the theory of boundary…
The Euler Characteristic of a Haken 4-Manifold
Allan L. Edmonds
Haken n-manifolds are aspherical manifolds, defined and studied by B. Foozwell and H. Rubinstein, that can be successively cut open along essential codimension-one submanifolds unt…
A survey of group actions on 4-manifolds
Allan L. Edmonds
Over 50 years of work on group actions on -manifolds, from the 1960's to the present, from knotted fixed point sets to Seiberg-Witten invariants, is surveyed. Locally linear act…
Pseudofree group actions on spheres
Allan L. Edmonds
R. S. Kulkarni showed that a finite group acting pseudofreely, but not freely, preserving orientation, on an even-dimensional sphere (or suitable sphere-like space) is either a per…
Involutions on tori with codimension one fixed point set
Allan L. Edmonds
The standard P. A. Smith theory of p-group actions on spheres, disks, and euclidean spaces is extended to the case of p-group actions on tori (i.e., products of circles) and couple…
