1 Conjecture about mapping class groups of 1-connected 5-manifolds

Let
Tex syntax error
be a closed, smooth, 1-connected 5-manifold, Matthias Kreck and Diarmuid Crowley conjecture that there is an isomorphism of abelian groups
\displaystyle  \pi_0(\SDiff(M)) \cong \Omega_6(B_2(M))
where B_2(M) is the normal 2-type of
Tex syntax error
as defined in [Kreck1999]. For example, if
Tex syntax error
is Spinable with H_2(M) \cong H then
\displaystyle  \Omega_6(B_2(M)) \cong \Omega_6^{Spin}(K(H, 2)).

At present we are checking the details of the proof of this conjecture using the methods of [Kreck1999].

The group \pi_0\SDiff(M) was computed in [Fang1993] provided that H_2(M) has no 2-torsion and no 3-torsion.
