Our results rely on Theorems proved by Duan and Wang. We determine the set D (M, N) of all possible map degrees from M to N when M and N are certain quasitoric 4-manifolds. The obtained sets of integers are interesting, e. g. those representable as the sum of two squares D (C P^2#C P^2, C P^2) or the sum of three squares D (C P^2 # C P^2 # C P^2, C P^2). Beside the general results about the map degrees between quasitoric 4-manifolds, the connections among Duan-Wang's approach, the quadratic forms, the number theory and the lattices is established.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-01-04T23:32:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57N65", "55N33" ], "keywords": [ "non-zero degree maps", "quasitoric", "map degrees", "number theory", "general results" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1301.0848B" } } }
