Cobordism Group of Morse Functions on Unoriented Surfaces
Ikegami and Saeki have proved that the cobordism group of Morse functions on oriented surfaces is an infinite cyclic group. Their method is applicable with a little modification to the computation of the cobordism group of Morse functions on unoriented surfaces. We prove that this group is isomorphic to the direct sum of the infinite cyclic group and the finite group of order two.
متن کاملAspherical Manifolds*
This is a survey on known results and open problems about closed aspherical manifolds, i.e., connected closed manifolds whose universal coverings are contractible. Many examples come from certain kinds of non-positive curvature conditions. The property aspherical, which is a purely homotopy theoretical condition, has many striking implications about the geometry and analysis of the manifold or ...
متن کاملUnoriented Geometric Functors
Farrell and Hsiang [2, p. 102] noticed that [5] implies that the geometric surgery groups defined in [6, Chapter 9] do not have the naturality Wall claims for them. Augmenting Wall’s definitions using spaces over RP∞ and line bundles they fixed the problem. The definition of geometric Wall groups involves homology with local coefficients and these also lack Wall’s claimed naturality. One would ...
متن کاملAlgebraic Cobordism
Together with F. Morel, we have constructed in [6, 7, 8] a theory of algebraic cobordism, an algebro-geometric version of the topological theory of complex cobordism. In this paper, we give a survey of the construction and main results of this theory; in the final section, we propose a candidate for a theory of higher algebraic cobordism, which hopefully agrees with the cohomology theory repres...
متن کاملCobordism of singular maps
Throughout this paper we consider smooth maps of positive codimensions, having only stable singularities (see [Ar2], §1.4 in Chapter 1). We prove a conjecture due to M. Kazarian, connecting two classifying spaces in singularity theory for this type of singular maps.. These spaces are: 1) Kazarian’s space (generalising Vassiliev’s algebraic complex and) showing which cohomology classes are repre...
