Homology spheres with $E_8$-fillings and arbitrarily large correction terms

Geometric Topology 2018-11-30 v1

Abstract

In this paper we construct families of homology spheres which bound 4-manifolds with intersection forms isomorphic to E8-E_8. We show that these families have arbitrary large correction terms. This result says that among homology spheres, the difference of the maximal rank of minimal sub-lattice of definite filling and the maximal rank of even definite filling is arbitrarily large.
