The minimal genus problem for elliptic surfaces

Published 6 Jun 2012 in math.GT and math.AG | (1206.1260v2)

Abstract: We solve a certain case of the minimal genus problem for embedded surfaces in elliptic 4-manifolds. The proofs involve a restricted transitivity property of the action of the orientation preserving diffeomorphism group on the second homology. In the case we consider we get the minimal possible genus allowed by the adjunction inequality.
