Abstract
Numerous structural findings of homology manifolds have been derived in various ways in relation to -values. The homology 4-manifolds with are characterized combinatorially in this article. It is well-known that all homology 4-manifolds for are polytopal spheres. We demonstrate that homology 4-manifolds with are triangulated spheres and are derived from triangulated 4-spheres with by a series of connected sum, bistellar 1- and 2-moves, edge contraction, edge expansion, and edge flipping operations. We establish that the above inequality is optimally attainable, i.e., it cannot be extended to .
