Contact topology and the structure of 5-manifolds with π 1 = 2
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Tome 48 (1998) no. 4, pp. 1167-1188.

Nous démontrons un théorème relatif à la structure des variétés M fermées, orientables, de dimension 5 avec groupe fondamental π 1 (M)= 2 et deuxième classe de Stiefel-Whitney égale à zéro sur H 2 (M). Ce théorème est alors utilisé pour construire des structures de contact sur ces variétés en appliquant la chirurgie de contact à de faux espaces projectifs et certains quotients de S 2 ×S 3 par une involution.

We prove a structure theorem for closed, orientable 5-manifolds M with fundamental group π 1 (M)= 2 and second Stiefel-Whitney class equal to zero on H 2 (M). This structure theorem is then used to construct contact structures on such manifolds by applying contact surgery to fake projective spaces and certain 2 -quotients of S 2 ×S 3 .
