In this thesis, we explicitly construct genus-3 Lefschetz fibrations over S2 whose total space is T2 S2#6CP2 using the monodromy of Matsumoto’s genus-2 Lefschetz fibration over S2. We also present exotic minimal symplectic 4-manifolds 3CP2#kCP2 for k = 13; : : : ; 19 by twisted fiber summing of our monodromy or the genus-3 version of generalized Matsumoto’s fibration constructed by Korkmaz or by applying lantern substitutions to these twisted fiber sums. In addition, we generalize our construction of genus-3 Lefschetz fibration to genus-3k Lefschetz fibrations over S2 using the generalized Matsumoto’s genus-2k Lefschetz fibration over S2 constructed by Korkmaz and independently by Cadavid. Using the generalized version of our monodromy, we derive exotic 4-manifolds via Luttinger surgery and twisted fiber sum. Secondly, we prove that the minimal number of singular fibers in a hyperelliptic Lefschetz fibration over a sphere is 2g + 4 for even g 4 , and also, we find a lower bound for odd g 5 when the fibration is holomorphic. In addition, we discuss the number of singular fibers of a hyperelliptic Lefschetz fibration over a sphere which does not carry a complex structure.

Genus-3 Lefschetz Fibrations and Exotic 4-Manifolds with b(2)(+)=3
Altunöz, Tülin (2021-06-01)
We explicitly construct a genus-3 Lefschetz fibration over S-2, whose total space is T-2 x S-2 #6 (CP2) over bar using the monodromy of Matsumoto's genus-2 Lefschetz fibration. We then construct more genus-3 Lefschetz fibrations, whose total spaces are exotic minimal symplectic 4-manifolds 3CP(2)#q (CP2) over bar for q = 13,..., 19. We also generalize our construction to get genus-3k Lefschetz fibration structure on the 4-manifold Sigma(k) x S-2 #6 (CP2) over bar using the generalized Matsumoto's genus-2k L...
Concrete description of CD0(K)-spaces as C(X)-spaces and its applications
Ercan, Z (American Mathematical Society (AMS), 2004-01-01)
We prove that for a compact Hausdorff space K without isolated points, CD0(K) and C(K x {0, 1}) are isometrically Riesz isomorphic spaces under a certain topology on K x {0, 1}. Moreover, K is a closed subspace of K x {0, 1}. This provides concrete examples of compact Hausdorff spaces X such that the Dedekind completion of C(X) is B(S) (= the set of all bounded real-valued functions on S) since the Dedekind completion of CD0(K) is B(K) (CD0(K, E) and CDw (K, E) spaces as Banach lattices).
CLUSTER ALGEBRAS AND SYMMETRIZABLE MATRICES
Seven, Ahmet İrfan (American Mathematical Society (AMS), 2019-07-01)
In the structure theory of cluster algebras, principal coefficients are parametrized by a family of integer vectors, called c-vectors. Each c-vector with respect to an acyclic initial seed is a real root of the corresponding root system, and the c-vectors associated with any seed defines a symmetrizable quasi-Cartan companion for the corresponding exchange matrix. We establish basic combinatorial properties of these companions. In particular, we show that c-vectors define an admissible cut of edges in the a...
Noncomplex smooth 4-manifolds with Lefschetz fibrations
Korkmaz, Mustafa (2001-01-01)
For every integer g ≥ 2 there exist infinitely many pairwise nonhomeomorphic smooth 4-manifolds admitting genus-g Lefschetz fibration over S2 but not carrying any complex structure. This extends a recent result of Ozbagci and Stipsicz.
Invariant subspaces for Banach space operators with an annular spectral set
Yavuz, Onur (2008-01-01)
Consider an annulus Omega = {z epsilon C : r(0) 0 such that parallel to p(T)parallel to <= K sup{vertical bar p(lambda)vertical bar : vertical bar lambda vertical bar <= 1} and parallel to p(r(0)T(-1))parallel to <= K sup{vertical bar p(lambda)vertical bar : vertical bar lambda vertical bar <= 1} for all polynomials p. Then there exists a nontrivial common invariant subspace for T* and T*(-1).
