SYMPLECTIC GEOGRAPHY PROBLEM IN DIMENSION SIX

Abstract

In this note, the geography problem in dimension four is reviewed and then its extension to dimension six for the symplectic case is explained. Finally some examples in dimension six are provided.

Keywords

• Symplectic,6-manifold,4-manifold,Geography
