Homotopy equivalences in algebraic topology (55P10) Embeddings and immersions in PL-topology (57Q35)

Abstract: We construct infinitely many smooth 4-manifolds which are homotopy equivalent to $S^2$ but do not admit a spine, i.e., a piecewise-linear embedding of $S^2$ which realizes the homotopy equivalence. This is the remaining case in the existence problem for codimension-2 spines in simply-connected manifolds. The obstruction comes from the Heegaard Floer $d$ invariants.
