Title New symplectic 4-manifolds with nonnegative signature
Author Anar Akhmedov and B. Doug Park
Abstract
We construct new families of symplectic 4-manifolds with nonnegative signature that are interesting with respect to the geography problem. In particular, we construct an irreducible symplectic 4-manifold that is homeomorphic to for each odd integer m satisfying m ≥ 49.
