Surgery on nullhomologous tori and simply connected 4-manifolds with b^+=1

Ronald Fintushel, Ronald J. Stern

Published 2007-01-01Version 1

For 5 <= k <= 8 we show that the infinite family of exotic smooth structures on CP^2# k(-CP^2) can be achieved by 1/n - surgeries on a single embedded nullhomologous torus in a manifold R_k which is homeomorphic to CP^2# k(-CP^2).
