Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We studied Lefschetz fibrations and Lefschetz pencils, which play an important role in 4-dimensional topology, using mapping class groups. In particular, we solved a problem on the Euler characteristics of Lefschetz pencils and constructed explicit examples that their existence are known but there are no example or that they have new properties. Moreover, as an application of the techniques we obtained in the study, we gave a result on stable commutator lengths in mapping class groups.
