Bounds on genus and configurations of embedded surfaces in 4-manifolds (1507.00139v3)
Published 1 Jul 2015 in math.GT and math.DG
Abstract: For several embedded surfaces with zero self-intersection number in 4-manifolds, we show that an adjunction-type genus bound holds for at least one of the surfaces under certain conditions. For example, we derive certain adjunction inequalities for surfaces embedded in $m\mathbb{CP}2# n(-\mathbb{CP}2)$ ($m, n \geq 2$). The proofs of these results are given by studying a family of Seiberg-Witten equations.
