We construct a functor from the smooth 4-dimensional manifolds to the hyper-algebraic number fields, i.e. fields with non-commutative multiplication. It is proved that that the simply connected 4-manifolds correspond to the abelian extensions. We recover the Rokhlin and Donaldsons Theorems from the Galois theory of the non-commutative fields.
In this paper, we prove a number of inequalities between the signature and the Betti numbers of a 4-manifold with even intersection form. Furthermore, we introduce a new geometric group invariant and discuss some of its properties.
We prove that for 4-manifolds $M$ with residually finite fundamental group and non-spin universal covering $Wi M$, the inequality $dim_{mc}Wi Mle 3$ implies the inequality $dim_{mc}Wi Mle 2$.
In this article, we construct countably many mutually non-isotopic diffeomorphisms of some closed non simply-connected 4-manifolds that are homotopic to but not isotopic to the identity, by surgery along $Theta$-graphs. As corollaries of this, we obt
This is an expository article of our work on analogies between knot theory and algebraic number theory. We shall discuss foundational analogies between knots and primes, 3-manifolds and number rings mainly from the group-theoretic point of view.
A smooth five-dimensional s-cobordism becomes a smooth product if stabilized by a finite number n of $S^2xS^2x[0,1]$s. We show that for amenable fundamental groups, the minimal n is subextensive in covers, i.e., n(cover)/index(cover) has limit 0. We
