S_k-Holonomy on Coloring Complexes of M^n with Applications to the Poincar\'e Conjecture and 4-Color Theorem

Publication date 22 May 2017

Abstract: A natural class of coloring complexes

X

on closed manifold

M^{n}

is investigated that gives a holonomy map

m b o x {H o l}_{X} : p i_{1} (M) o S_{n + 1}

. By a

k

-multilayer complex construction the holonomy map may be defined to any finite permutation group

m b o x {H o l}_{X} : p i_{1} (M) o S_{n + k}

,

k > 0

. Under isotopy of

X

and surgery on

B^{n} s u b s e t M^{n}

a holonomy class of complexes

[X]

is defined with

[X] = [Y] i f f m b o x {H o l}_{X} = m b o x {H o l}_{Y}

. It is also shown that for any homeomorphism

f : p i_{1} (M) o S_{n + 1}

there is a complex

X

on

M

with

m b o x {H o l}_{X} = f

. These results are applied to express the

4

-color Theorem and the Poincar'e Conjecture as the existence and uniqueness, respectively, of a certain holonomy class. Several other applications are suggested.
