Abstract
In this article, we construct infinitely many simply connected, nonsymplectic and pairwise nondiffeomorphic 4-manifolds starting from the elliptic surfaces E (n) and applying the sequence of knot surgery, ordinary blowups and rational blowdown. We also compute the Seiberg-Witten invariants of these manifolds.
