Geography of Genus 2 Lefschetz fibrations
Abstract
Questions of geography of various classes of -manifolds have been a central motivating question in -manifold topology. Baykur and Korkmaz asked which small, simply connected, minimal -manifolds admit a genus Lefschetz fibration. They were able to classify all the possible homeomorphism types and realize all but one with the exception of a genus Lefschetz fibration on a symplectic -manifold homeomorphic, but not diffeomorphic to . We give a positive factorization of type that corresponds to such a genus Lefschetz fibration. Furthermore, we observe two restrictions on the geography of genus Lefschetz fibrations, we find that they satisfy the Noether inequality and a BMY like inequality. We then find positive factorizations that describe genus Lefschetz fibrations on simply connected, minimal symplectic -manifolds for many of these points.
