โœฆ Synopsis


Suppose M is a noncompact connected PL 2-manifold and let H(M) 0 denote the identity component of the homeomorphism group of M with the compact-open topology. In this paper we classify the homotopy type of H(M) 0 by showing that H(M) 0 has the homotopy type of the circle if M is the plane, an open or half open annulus, or the punctured projective plane. In all other cases we show that H(M) 0 is homotopically trivial.

If M and N are Hilbe, t c&Se manifok'~, then M is homeomorphic to N if and only if H(M) is isomorphic to I-I(N), where H(X) denoces the group of homeomorphisms from the space X onto itself under the group operation of composition.

In this paper we study the classification of self-homeomorphisms of closed, connected, oriented 4-manifolds with infinite cyclic fundamental group up to pseudoisotopy, or equivalently up to homotopy. We find that for manifolds with even intersection form homeomorphisms are classified up to pseudoiso

We show that if A4 is a closed 4-manifold such that ~z(A4) ?Z Z and x(M) 6 0 then its homotopy type is determined up to a finite ambiguity by T = TI (M). We also show that (for given T) the action of T on TZ(M) and the orientation character WI(M) determine each other, and find strong constraints on
