KnotSurf4d Knots and Surfaces in four-manifolds

Coordinator: HUN-REN RENYI ALFRED MATEMATIKAI KUTATOINTEZET (HU)

Four-dimensional smooth manifolds show very different behaviour than manifolds in any other dimension. In fact, in other dimensions we have a somewhat clear picture of the classification, while dimension four is still elusive. The project aims to further our knowledge in this question in several ways. The genus function, and its enhanced version taking knots and their slice surfaces into account, plays a crucial role in understanding different smooth structures on four-manifolds. Techniques for studying these objects range from topological and symplectic/algebraic geometric (on the constructi…

About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)

Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.

EU contribution: €2.0M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 5 years from 2024-05-01 to 2029-04-30.
