Clarifies construction of K-contact non-Sasakian Smale-Barden manifolds.
First example of a 5D manifold with K-contact but no Sasakian structure.
This work classifies Smale-Barden manifolds with Sasakian structures.
Developed Gompf connected sum for orbifolds, constructing symplectic and K-contact manifolds.
This paper constructs symplectic surfaces in 4-manifolds with transversal intersections.
Kollár has found subtle obstructions to the existence of Sasakian structures on 5-dimensional manifolds. In the present article we develop methods of using these obstructions to distinguish K-contact manifolds from Sasakian ones. In particular, we find the first example of a closed 5-manifold M with which …
Study on negative Sasakian structures on specific 5-manifolds.
