Cobordism of Fold Maps, Stably Framed Manifolds and Immersions

چکیده
We give complete geometric invariants of cobordisms of fold maps with oriented singular set and cobordisms of even codimensional fold maps. These invariants are given in terms of cobordisms of stably framed manifolds and cobordisms of immersions with prescribed normal bundles.

Fold Maps, Framed Immersions and Smooth Structures
We show that the cobordism group of fold maps of even non-positive codimension q into a manifold N is a sum of q/2 cobordism groups of framed immersions into N and a group related to diffeomorphism groups of manifolds of dimension q + 1. In the case of maps of odd non-positive codimension q, we show that the cobordism groups of fold maps split off (q − 1)/2 cobordism groups of framed immersions.
متن کاملFold Maps and Immersions from the Viewpoint of Cobordism
We obtain complete geometric invariants of cobordism classes of oriented simple fold maps of (n+ 1)-dimensional manifolds into an n-dimensional manifold N in terms of immersions with prescribed normal bundles. We compute that for N = R the cobordism group of simple fold maps is isomorphic to the direct sum of the (n−1)th stable homotopy group of spheres and the (n − 1)th stable homotopy group o...
متن کاملThe Kervaire invariant of immersions
where f2. G is an appropriate cobordism theory of immersed submanifolds of Euclidean space. By generalizing techniques of Browder [2] we shall give necessary and sufficient Adams spectral sequence conditions for an element in t2. G to have nonzero Kervaire invariant. Also we will prove that for every j > 1 there exists a closed, differentiable manifold of dimension 2 ) § together with an immers...
متن کاملCobordisms of Fold Maps of 4-manifolds into the Space
We compute the oriented cobordism group of fold maps of 4-manifolds into R 3 with all the possible restrictions (and also with no restriction) to the singular fibers. We also give geometric invariants which describe completely the cobordism group of fold maps.
متن کاملCobordisms of Fold Maps and Maps with Prescribed Number of Cusps
A generic smooth map of a closed 2k-manifold into (3k− 1)-space has a finite number of cusps (Σ-singularities). We determine the possible numbers of cusps of such maps. A fold map is a map with singular set consisting of only fold singularities (Σsingularities). Two fold maps are fold bordant if there are cobordisms between their sourceand target manifolds with a fold map extending the two maps...
