A homotopy version of this theorem was proved in FGP 1] for all dimensions. Here therefore, we need only consider dimensions __> 4. Moreover, the last claim of the theorem is implied by the first, since every closed topological n-manifold carries at most finitely many smooth structures up to diffeomorphism when n 4= 4 (cf. [-KS] for n > 5). Combining Theorem A with the Bonnet-Myers theorem ECE] and Hamilton's work on manifolds with positive Ricci curvature [H], yields a generalization and sharpening of Weinstein's finiteness theorem [W].
