The Algebraic Theory of Surgery Reading Seminar

The total surgery obstruction s(X) of a finite Poincaré complex X of formal dimension n is an element of a certain abelian group Sn(X) with the property that s(X) = 0 if and only if X is homotopy equivalent to a closed n-dimensional topological manifold. Both the definition of s(X) and the proof of the above property require a substantial amount of technology known as algebraic theory of surger...
