Cobordism — A cobordism (W;M,N). In mathematics, cobordism is a fundamental equivalence relation on the class of compact manifolds of the same dimension, set up using the concept of the boundary of a manifold. Two manifolds are cobordant if their disjoint… … Wikipedia
Surgery theory — In mathematics, specifically in geometric topology, surgery theory is a collection of techniques used to produce one manifold from another in a controlled way, introduced by Milnor (1961). Surgery refers to cutting out parts of the manifold… … Wikipedia
Normal invariant — In mathematics, a normal map is a concept in geometric topology due to William Browder which is of fundamental importance in surgery theory. Given a Poincaré complex X, a normal map on X endows the space, roughly speaking, with some of the… … Wikipedia
Adams spectral sequence — In mathematics, the Adams spectral sequence is a spectral sequence introduced by Adams (1958). Like all spectral sequences, it is a computational tool; it relates homology theory to what is now called stable homotopy theory. It is a… … Wikipedia
Characteristic class — In mathematics, a characteristic class is a way of associating to each principal bundle on a topological space X a cohomology class of X. The cohomology class measures the extent to which the bundle is twisted particularly, whether it possesses… … Wikipedia
Akbulut cork — In topology an Akbulut cork is a structure is frequently used to show that in four dimensions, the smooth h cobordism theorem fails. It was named after Selman Akbulut.The basic idea of the Akbulut cork is that when attempting to use the h… … Wikipedia
