Nonholomorphic Lefschetz fibrations with $(-1)$-sections

Noriyuki Hamada, Ryoma Kobayashi and Naoyuki Monden

Vol. 298 (2019), No. 2, 375–398
Abstract

We construct two types of nonholomorphic Lefschetz fibrations over S2 with (1)-sections — hence, they are fiber sum indecomposable — by giving the corresponding positive relators. One type of the two does not satisfy the slope inequality (a necessary condition for a fibration to be holomorphic) and has a simply connected total space, and the other has a total space that cannot admit any complex structure in the first place. These give an alternative existence proof for nonholomorphic Lefschetz pencils without Donaldson’s theorem.
