The development of topological 4-manifold theory is described in the form of a flowchart showing the interdependence among many key statements in the theory. In particular, the flowchart demonstrates how the theory crucially relies on the constructions in this book, what goes into the work of Quinn on smoothing, normal bundles, and transversality, and what is needed to deduce the famous consequences, such as the classification of closed, simply connected, topological 4-manifolds, the category preserving Poincaré conjecture, and the existence of exotic smooth structures on 4-dimensional Euclidean space. Precise statements of the results, brief indications of some proofs, and extensive references are provided.

In [2], R. Arthan and S. Bullett pose the problem of representing generators of the complex bordism ring MU* by manifolds which are totally normally split; i.e. whose stable normal bundles are split into a sum of complex line bundles. This has recently been solved by Ochanine and Schwartz [8] who use a mixture of J-theory and surgery theory to establish several results, including the following.

Let [Formula: see text] be a general Fano complete intersection of type [Formula: see text]. If at least one [Formula: see text] is greater than [Formula: see text], we show that [Formula: see text] contains rational curves of degree [Formula: see text] with balanced normal bundle. If all [Formula: see text] are [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], we show that [Formula: see text] contains rational curves of degree [Formula: see text] with balanced normal bundle. As an application, we prove a stronger version of the theorem of Tian [27], Chen and Zhu [4] that [Formula: see text] is separably rationally connected by exhibiting very free rational curves in [Formula: see text] of optimal degrees.
