In this paper we continue our investigations of 4-dimensional complexes in [A. Cavicchioli, F. Hegenbarth, F. Spaggiari, Four-dimensional complexes with fundamental class, Mediterr. J. Math. 17 (2020), 175]. We study a class of finite oriented 4-complexes which we call FC 4 {\mathrm{FC}_{4}} -complexes, defined as follows. An FC 4 {\mathrm{FC}_{4}} -complex is a 4-dimensional finite oriented CW-complex X with a single 4-cell such that H 4 ( X , ℤ ) ≅ ℤ {H_{4}(X,\mathbb{Z})\cong\mathbb{Z}} with a fundamental class [ X ] ∈ H 4 ( X , ℤ ) {[X]\in H_{4}(X,\mathbb{Z})} . By well-known results of Wall, any Poincaré complex is of this type. We are interested in two questions. First, for which 3-complexes K does an element [ φ ] ∈ π 3 ( K ) {[\varphi]\in\pi_{3}(K)} exist such that K ∪ φ D 4 {K\cup_{\varphi}D^{4}} is a Poincaré complex? Second, if there exists one, how many others can be constructed from K? The latter question was addressed studied in the above cited previous paper of the authors. In the present paper we deal with the first problem, and give necessary and sufficient conditions on K and [ φ ] ∈ π 3 ( K ) {[\varphi]\in\pi_{3}(K)} to satisfy Poincaré duality with ℤ {\mathbb{Z}} - and Λ-coefficients. Here Λ denotes the integral group ring of π 1 ( K ) {\pi_{1}(K)} . Before, we give a classification of all FC 4 {\mathrm{FC}_{4}} -complexes based on the finite 3-complex K, and make some remarks concerning ℤ {\mathbb{Z}} - and Λ-Poincaré duality.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
