Recently, \\textit{R. Kirby} and \\textit{A. Thompson} [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 115, No. 43, 10857--10860 (2018; Zbl 1421.57031)] pushed these techniques into dimension four, assigning a loop in the cut complex to a trisected \\(4\\)-manifold. The aim of this paper is to, in some sense, reverse this. The authors show that every smooth, orientable, closed, connected \\(4\\)- manifold can be represented by a loop in the pants complex. In particular, given a loop in the pants complex, they show how to uniquely build a closed smooth \\(4\\)-manifold. They use this representation, together with the fact that the pants complex is simply connected, to provide an elementary proof that such \\(4\\)-manifolds are smoothly cobordant to a connected sum of complex projective planes, with either orientation.  The authors also use their correspondence to gain insight into the structure of the pants complex. In particular, given a loop \\(L\\) in the pants complex, they define an invariant \\(\\sigma(L)\\), which is the signature of the \\(4\\)-manifold associated to \\(L\\). This may be calculated using information only of the \\(1\\)-skeleton of the pants complex, but contains information about possible disks that this loop can bound. Namely, given a loop in the pants complex, \\(L\\), which bounds a disk, \\(D\\), they show that the signature of the \\(4\\)-manifold associated to \\(L\\) gives a lower bound on the number of triangles in \\(D\\).","type":"string"},"datatype":"string"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2168340$B8EECAD5-6FD3-4DCC-9C3F-3800995DC253","rank":"normal"}],"P1447":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1447","hash":"2a9e38b645424c0cddc6d235e7843c8d8098c8ec","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":243441,"id":"Q243441"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2168340$EB6E4C6B-FD8E-4E82-9EF0-1E33C8DA891C","rank":"normal"}],"P226":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"6f3e2f3913a74d8c2c615a6a91c8e75fcad226c0","datavalue":{"value":"57K40","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2168340$9ADD6EA8-F661-4BF7-A21A-D42E66C8D1FD","rank":"normal"}],"P1451":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1451","hash":"7482e3bab47320f8285b463d4a01fd16bde0746d","datavalue":{"value":"7579209","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2168340$D0857533-5C2D-4055-B081-E886C81EE9FA","rank":"normal"}],"P1450":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1450","hash":"6092cc3ed6288bfc45b934e17551e0b32975fcd1","datavalue":{"value":"trisections","type":"string"},"datatype":"string"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2168340$D35D955A-6800-4763-91D1-A7549AFA3C89","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1450","hash":"6a3378b28883461e787e498589c7e8b3f3d04d1a","datavalue":{"value":"4-manifolds","type":"string"},"datatype":"string"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2168340$9CFDC5A3-48F1-4EFD-926A-7F5A0A93249B","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1450","hash":"14dfddadf475b3b64a3f0860b75eeef9d0139e6a","datavalue":{"value":"pants
