Let $\mathcal{M}_6(0)$ be the set of diffeomorphism classes of [[wikipedia:Closed_manifold|closed]] [[wikipedia:Differentiable_manifold|smooth]] [[wikipedia:Simply-connected|simply-connected]] 2-connected 6-manifolds $M$.
The classification $\mathcal{M}_6(0)$ was one of Smale's first applications of the [[Wikipedia:h-cobordism_theorem|h-cobordism]] theorem {{cite|Smale1962a|Corollary 1.3}}. The classification, as for [[Surface|oriented surfaces]] is strikingly simple: every 2-connected 6-manifold $M$ is diffeomorphic to a [[Wikipedia:Connected-sum|connected-sum]]
$$ M \cong \sharp_r(S^3 \times S^3)$$
where by definition $\sharp_0(S^3 \times S^3) = S^6$ and in general $r$ is determined by the formula for the [[Wikipedia:Euler characteristic|Euler characteristic]] of $M$
$$ \chi(M) = 2 - 2r.$$
* For the more general case where $H_2(M) \neq 0$, see [[6-manifolds: 1-connected|6-manifolds: 1-connected]].

== Construction and examples $L^2$ ==
The following gives a complete list of 2-connected 6-manifolds up to diffeomorphism:
* $S^6$, the standard 6-sphere.
* $\sharp_b(S^3 \times S^3)$, the $b$-fold connected sum of $S^3 \times S^3$.
</wikitex>
== Invariants ==
<wikitex refresh include="MediaWiki:MathFontHV">;
Suppose that $M$ is diffeomorphic to $\sharp_b(S^3 \times S^3)$ then:
* $\pi_3(M) \cong H_3(M) \cong \Zz^{2b}$,
* the third Betti-number of $M$ is given by $b_3(M) = 2b$,
* the Euler characteristic of $M$ is given by $\chi(M) = 2 - 2b$,
* the [[Intersection forms|intersection form]] of $M$ is isomorphic to the sum of b-copies of $H_{-}(\Zz)$, the standard skew-symmetric hyperbolic form on $\Zz^2$.

== Classification ==
Recall that the following theorem was stated in other words in the introduction:
{{beginthm|Theorem|{{cite|Smale1962a|Corolary 1.3}}}} \label{thm:classification}
The semi-group of 2-connected 6-manifolds is generated by $S^3 \times S^3$.
{{endthm}}
Hence if $\Nn$ denotes the natural numbers we obtain a bijection
$$ \mathcal{M}_6(0)\equiv \Nn,[M] \mapsto \frac{1}{2}b_3(M).$$

== Further discussion ==
=== Topological 2-connected 6-manifolds ===
<wikitex>;
<wikitex>;
Let $\mathcal{M}^{\Top}_6(e)$ be the set of homeomorphism classes of topological 2-connected 6-manifolds.
+
Poincare complexes are great:
{{beginthm|Theorem}}\label{test}
+
$$ H_i(X) \cong H^{n-i}(X)$$
Every topological 2-connected 6-manifold admits a smooth structure which is unique up to diffoemorphism. That is, there is a bijection
+
$$ \mathcal{M}_6(e) \rightarrow \mathcal{M}^{\Top}_6(e).$$
+
{{endthm}}
+
+
{{beginproof}}
+
For any such manifold $M$ we have $H^4(M; \Zz/2) \cong 0$ and so $M$ is smoothable (see [[6-manifolds: 1-connected#Smoothing theory|6-manifolds: 1-connected]]). Any two homeomorphic manifolds have the same Euler Characteristic and so by Theorem \ref{thm:classification} are diffeomorphic.
