The Dehn twist on a sum of two K3 surfaces

From MaRDI portal
Publication:1996416



Abstract: Ruberman gave the first examples of self-diffeomorphisms of four-manifolds that are isotopic to the identity in the topological category but not smoothly so. We give another example of this phenomenon, using the Dehn twist along a 3-sphere in the connected sum of two K3 surfaces.
