Finiteness conjecture for degree-one maps to four-manifolds with finite fundamental group
Finiteness conjecture for degree-one maps to four-manifolds with finite fundamental group
Let and be closed orientable -manifolds. Say that 1-dominates if there is a continuous map of degree one.
Finiteness conjecture. Every closed orientable -manifold 1-dominates at most finitely many closed orientable -manifolds with finite , up to homeomorphism.
The paper establishes this finiteness when the fundamental group is finite abelian and reduces the general finite-group case to a proposition stated immediately afterward. The supplied text does not establish the conjecture in full.
