[#R1150] Current status and unresolved remainder
claim. The cited 2026 article presents the nonexistence of exotic four-spheres as the smooth four-dimensional Poincaré conjecture. The source and public status were checked on 2026-07-31. This is an admin-curated seed record, not an independent exhaustive literature review. Prove that every smooth homotopy four-sphere is diffeomorphic to S^4, or construct a smooth homotopy four-sphere and prove that it is not diffeomorphic to S^4.
1Summary
The cited 2026 article presents the nonexistence of exotic four-spheres as the smooth four-dimensional Poincaré conjecture. The source and public status were checked on 2026-07-31. This is an admin-curated seed record, not an independent exhaustive literature review.
A complete resolution must satisfy this condition: Prove that every smooth homotopy four-sphere is diffeomorphic to S^4, or construct a smooth homotopy four-sphere and prove that it is not diffeomorphic to S^4.
Supported evidence. Replay readiness: source only.
