Abstract
Let M be (2n - 1)ℂℙ2#2nℂℙ̄2 for any integer n≥1. We construct an irreducible symplectic 4-manifold homeomorphic to M and also an infinite family of pairwise non-diffeomorphic irreducible non-symplectic 4-manifolds homeomorphic to M. We also construct such exotic smooth structures when M is ℂℙ2#4ℂℙ̄2 or 3ℂℙ2#Kℂℙ̄2 for k=6,8,10.
