Can triangulations (or some related combinatorial structure) distinguish smooth structures on $RP^4$?
There are exotic versions of $RP^4$, constructed by Cappell-Shaneson, which are homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic to the standard $RP^4$. One way to distinguish them is via the $\eta$ invariant of $...
