Strongly minimal triangulations of \((S^{3} \times S^{1})^{\#3}\) and \((S^{3} \utimes S^{1})^{\#3}\) (Q2344083)

A triangulated manifold \(M\) of dimension \(d\geq\) is tight-neighbourly if \(\binom{f_0(M) -d- 1}{2} =\binom{d +2}{2}\beta_1(M; \mathbb{Z}_2)\). For a field \(\mathbb{F}\), an \(\mathbb{F}\)-tight simplicial complex is a connected simplicial complex such that the morphism \(H_{j}(Y; \mathbb{F}) \to H_{j}(X; \mathbb{F})\) induced by the inclusion map \(Y \hookrightarrow X\) is injective for each induced subcomplex \(Y\) of \(X\) and for \(j\geq 0\). A stacked closed \(d\)-manifold \(M\) is the boundary of a triangulated manifold \(N\) of dimension \(d+1\) with the property that both \(M\) and \(N\) have the same set of \((d-1)\)-simplices. A tight-neighbourly triangulated manifold is stacked, a recent result of \textit{S. Murai} [Collect. Math. 66, No. 3, Article ID 137, 367--386 (2015; Zbl 1409.13041)] and hence, by a result of \textit{B. Bagchi} and \textit{B. Datta} [Eur. J. Comb. 36, 294--313 (2014; Zbl 1301.52032)], is \(\mathbb{Z}_2\)-tight. Therefore, it is interesting to find new examples of tight-neighbourly manifolds. In [Discrete Math. 311, No. 12, 989--995 (2011; Zbl 1220.57014)], \textit{B. Bagchi} and \textit{B. Datta} constructed one tight-neighbourly 4-manifold with 15 vertices (equivalently, with \(\beta_1 = 3\)). In this article, the author presents eleven more 15-vertex tight-neighbourly 4-manifolds. the group \(\mathbb{Z}_3\) acts non-trivially on each of these twelve triangulated 4-manifolds. The author shows that if a 15-vertex tight-neighbourly 4-manifold has \(\mathbb{Z}_3\) as an automorphism group then it is one of the above twelve.
