Abstract:Given a 4-manifold X bounded by a Seifert manifold, one can use the circle action on the boundary to define a diffeomorphism on X, called the boundary Dehn twist. Such boundary Dehn twist naturally arises from singularity theory. A recent result by Konno-Mallick-Taniguchi shows that when X is a certain Milnor fiber, this boundary Dehn twist is topologically isotopic to the identity bu...
