The classification conjecture for square-zero sphere classes
The classification conjecture for square-zero sphere classes
Let be the smooth, closed, oriented -manifold under consideration, with signature and modified Euler characteristic , and let denote its intersection lattice. Let be a homology class with represented by an embedded sphere. Write for the subgroup of lattice automorphisms preserving the relevant -structure. Square-zero sphere-class conjecture. If
then is equivalent under to one of the classes in the last part of the sphere-class proposition. The claim extends the preceding classification to the case ; the paper presents this as a hoped-for classification, and no resolution is supplied in the given text.
