Abstract: We consider the homotopy types of PD4-complexes X with fundamental group pi such that c.d.pi=2 and pi has one end. Let and w=w1(X). Our main result is that (modulo two technical conditions on (pi,w)) there are at most orbits of k-invariants determining "strongly minimal" complexes (i.e., those with homotopy intersection pairing lambdaX trivial). The homotopy type of a PD4-complex X with pi a PD2-group is determined by pi, w, lambdaX and the v2-type of X. Our result also implies that Fox's 2-knot with metabelian group is determined up to TOP isotopy and reflection by its group.
