Adjunction inequalities and the Davis hyperbolic four-manifold

Geometric Topology 2025-03-12 v1

Abstract

The Davis hyperbolic four-manifold D\mathcal{D} is not almost-complex, so that its Seiberg-Witten invariants corresponding to zero-dimensional moduli spaces are vanishing by definition. In this paper, we show that all the Seiberg-Witten invariants involving higher-dimensional moduli spaces also vanish. Our proof involves the adjunction inequalities corresponding to 864 genus two totally geodesic surfaces embedded inside D\mathcal{D}.
