Abstract:
We study the following problem for closed connected oriented manifolds M of dimension 4. Let be the integral group ring of the fundamental group π1(M). Suppose GH2(M;Λ) is a free Λ-submodule. When do there exist closed connected 4-manifolds P and M′ such that M is homotopy equivalent to the connected sum P # M′, where π1(P)π1(M), π1(M′)0, and . An answer is given in terms of π1(M) and the intersection forms on H2(M;Λ) and .
