Abstract:

In this note we set forth conditions under which for a given $4$-manifold $M$ there exist a countably infinite number of $4$-manifolds ${M_i}$ such that ${\pi _1}({\text {Bd}}{{\text {M}}_i})$ are distinct indecomposable groups and each ${M_i} \times I$ is homeomorphic with $M \times I$.
