The smooth locus is assumed to be simply connected. Kollár's algebraic Montgomery–Yang conjecture. If is simply connected, then has at most three singular points. This problem concerns the maximal number of quotient singularities on a rational homology projective plane and is an algebraic analogue of the Montgomery–Yang problem for pseudo-free smooth circle actions on the -sphere. The source states that the present paper completely resolves it.
