Cancellation properties of exotic 4-dimensional positive scalar curvature metrics
Johannes Ebert (Münster)
We prove that the mass endomorphism associated to the Dirac operator on a Riemannian manifold is non-zero for generic Riemannian metrics. The proof involves a study of the mass endomorphism under surgery, its behavior near metrics with harmonic spinors, and analytic perturbation arguments.
