Bordism Groups of Solutions to Differential Relations
نویسنده
چکیده
In terms of category theory, the Gromov homotopy principle for a set valued functor F asserts that the functor F can be induced from a homotopy functor. Similarly, we say that the bordism principle for an abelian group valued functor F holds if the functor F can be induced from a (co)homology functor. We examine the bordism principle in the case of functors given by bordism groups of solutions to differential relations.

Bordism and the Pontryagin-Thom Theorem
Given the classification of low dimensional manifolds up to equivalence relations such as diffeomorphism or homeomorphism, one would hope to be able to continue to classify higher dimensional manifolds. Unfortunately, this turns out to be difficult or impossible, and so one solution would be turn to some weaker equivalence relation. One such equivalence relation would be to consider manifolds u...
متن کاملBordism, and Free Group Actions
In this paper we give characteristic class formulae for all semicharacteristic classes of all compact, closed manifolds with finite fundamental groups. These invariants are identified with elements in certain odd L-groups, and exactly which elements occur is specified. An appendix calculates the cohomology of the model groups needed. A second appendix determines the structure of the L-groups ne...
متن کاملStratified and unstratified bordism of pseudomanifolds
We study bordism groups and bordism homology theories based on pseudomanifolds and stratified pseudomanifolds. The main seam of the paper demonstrates that when we uses classes of spaces determined by local link properties, the stratified and unstratified bordism theories are identical; this includes the known examples of pseudomanifold bordism theories, such as bordism of Witt spaces and IP sp...
