Title Action of the cork twist on Floer homology
Authors Selman Akbulut and Cagri Karakurt
Abstract
We utilize the Ozsvath-Szabo contact invariant to detect the action of involutions on certain homology spheres that are surgeries on symmetric links, generalizing a previous result of Akbulut and Durusoy. Potentially this may be useful to detect different smooth structures on 4-manifolds obtained by the cork twisting operation.
