Surgery on Nullhomologous Tori

Abstract

By studying the example of smooth structures on CP2#3(-CP2) we illustrate how surgery on a single embedded nullhomologous torus can be utilized to change the symplectic structure, the Seiberg-Witten invariant, and hence the smooth structure on a 4-manifold.
