Abstract
Co-authors: Josh Greene and Saso Strle
I will describe work in progress aimed at generalising the Gordon-Litherland form to the case of properly embedded surfaces in the four-ball and the four-sphere. I will also discuss a motivating non-application involving concordance invariants of links which lie on definite surfaces in S^4.
