Exotic torus manifolds and equivariant smooth structures on quasitoric manifolds
TLDR
In this article, it was shown that for torus manifolds of dimension greater than six, there are infinitely many conjugacy classes and that the fundamental groups of locally standard torus manifold groups are not homeomorphic.Abstract:
In 2006 Masuda and Suh asked if two compact non-singular toric varieties having isomorphic cohomology rings are homeomorphic. In the first part of this paper we discuss this question for topological generalizations of toric varieties, so-called torus manifolds. For example we show that there are homotopy equivalent torus manifolds which are not homeomorphic. Moreover, we characterize those groups which appear as the fundamental groups of locally standard torus manifolds. In the second part we give a classification of quasitoric manifolds and certain six-dimensional torus manifolds up to equivariant diffeomorphism. In the third part we enumerate the number of conjugacy classes of tori in the diffeomorphism group of torus manifolds. For torus manifolds of dimension greater than six there are always infinitely many conjugacy classes. We give examples which show that this does not hold for six-dimensional torus manifolds.read more

When are two Coxeter orbifolds dieomorphic
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that a compact manifold with corners is a contractible manifold with contractible faces if and only if its 4-dimensional faces are dieomorphic, and that a convex polytopes with contractable faces are also contractible.
