AbstractWe study lens space surgeries along two different families of 2-component links, denoted by${A}_{m, n} $and${B}_{p, q} $, related with the rational homology$4$-ball used in J. Park’s (generalized) rational blow down. We determine which coefficient$r$of the knotted component of the link yields a lens space by Dehn surgery. The link${A}_{m, n} $yields a lens space only by the known surgery with$r= mn$and unexpectedly with$r= 7$for$(m, n)= (2, 3)$. On the other hand,${B}_{p, q} $yields a lens space by infinitely many$r$. Our main tool for the proof are the Reidemeister-Turaev torsions, that is, Reidemeister torsions with combinatorial Euler structures. Our results can be extended to the links whose Alexander polynomials are same as those of${A}_{m, n} $and${B}_{p, q} $.

We prove that the Seiberg–Witten invariants of a rational homology sphere are determined by the Casson–Walker invariant and the Reidemeister–Turaev torsion.

Abstract Let 𝓔 k denote the set of diffeomorphism classes of closed connected smooth k-manifolds X with the property that for any oriented vector bundle α over X, the Euler class e(α) = 0. We show that if X ∈ 𝓔2n+1 is orientable, then X is a rational homology sphere and π 1(X) is perfect. We also show that 𝓔8 = ∅ and derive additional cohomlogical restrictions on orientable manifolds in 𝓔 k .

Based on the analogy between links and primes, we present an analogue of the Iwasawa's class number formula in a Zp-extension for the p-homology groups of pn-fold cyclic covers of a link in a rational homology 3-sphere. We also describe the associated Iwasawa invariants precisely for some examples and discuss analogies with the number field case.

Abstract In their paper from 2012, Bobadilla and Kollár studied topological conditions which guarantee that a proper map of complex algebraic varieties is a topological or differentiable fibration. They also asked whether a certain finiteness property on the relative covering space can imply that a proper map is a fibration. In this paper, we answer positively the integral homology version of their question in the case of abelian varieties, and the rational homology version in the case of compact ball quotients. We also propose several conjectures in relation to the Singer–Hopf conjecture in the complex projective setting.
