Mar 18, 2018 at 3:44 | comment | added | Michael Albanese | For $n \equiv 2 \bmod 8$, there are examples similar to the ones mentioned by Igor Belegradek (see my comment on his answer). So the only dimensions that have not been covered so far are $n \equiv 3, 5, 6, 7 \bmod 8$. | |
Mar 13, 2018 at 3:47 | comment | added | Michael Albanese | Note that $(T^4\# K3)^m$ is a $4m$-dimensional manifold in class (C) using the same criterion. So the missing dimensions are $n \equiv 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 \bmod 8$. By the classification of manifolds in class (A) mentioned in Igor Belegradek's answer, if $n \equiv 3, 5, 6, 7 \bmod 8$, any $n$-manifold in class (C) has non-trivial fundamental group. | |
