Title:

The Boundary Dehn Twists on Punctured K3 Surfaces

Abstract:

In 4-manifold topology, Dehn twists along Seifert fibered 3-manifolds provide an important source fof exotic diffeomorphisms. A notable example is the boundary Dehn twist on a punctured K3 surface, which Baraglia-Konno and Kronheimer-Mrowka proved is nontrivial in the smooth mapping class group relative to boundary. I will show that despite being smoothly nontrivial, this diffeomorphism is trivial in the abelianization of the mapping class group. The proof is based on an obstruction for Spin^\mathbb{C} families due to Baraglia-Konno and the global Torelli theorem of K3 surfaces.
