Weak generalized Property R conjecture for 4-dimensional 2-handlebodies
Weak generalized Property R conjecture for 4-dimensional 2-handlebodies
Let be a nonnegative integer. Suppose that attaching -handles to gives a -manifold whose boundary is
Weak generalized Property R conjecture. Then
This is presented as a possibly weaker form of the generalized Property R conjecture. The proposition preceding it shows that the generalized conjecture would imply the standard conclusion for homology -spheres with handle structures containing no -handles; the paper later states that this weak conjecture is equivalent to that homology--sphere conjecture.
