Broken Lefschetz fibrations on smooth four-manifolds
It is known that an arbitrary smooth, oriented four-manifold admits the structure of what is called a broken Lefschetz fibration. Given a broken Lefschetz fibration, there are certain modifications, realized as homotopies of the fibration map, that enable one to construct infinitely many distinct fi...
