Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The cobordism relations regarding several 3 dimensional manifolds as boundary components of a 4 dimensional manifold is one of the important object to study on the fundamental building block of 4 dimensional manifolds. In this research, we investigated the moduli spaces of flat connections over 4 dimensional manifolds to study cobordism relations. In particular, for cobordisms among 3 dimensional manifolds called lens spaces which have negative definite intersection forms, we have shown a generation of certain pair of lens spaces in the cobordism. By using this result, we clarify a certain structure of the homology cobordism group of homology 3 spheres.
