Talk:Normal bordism - definitions (Ex)
In both parts let be a connected finite Poincare complex of dimension and let .
Part 1
The following definition of the set of normal maps is similar to [Lück2001, Definition 3.46]. We define
where we identify iff
- There exists a compact manifold of dimension whose boundary can be written as .
- There exists an embedding : such that for we have and meets transversally.
- There exists a vector bundle : of rank and for there exist vector bundle isomorphisms : .
- There exists a bundle map : such that for we have and such that : has degree one as a map between Poincare pairs.
- For there exist diffeomorphisms : such that
- : is a diffeomorphism
- the induced bundle map : satisfies .
Part 2
The following definition of the set of tangential normal maps differs from [Lück2001, Definition 3.50]. We define
where we identify iff
1) There exists a compact manifold of dimension whose boundary can be written as .
2) There exists a vector bundle : and there exist and a bundle map : such that for we have and such that : has degree one as a map between Poincare pairs.
3) For there exist diffeomorphisms : such that .
4) For there exist bundle isomorphisms : such that
commutes. Here : is the differential of and : is given by an inward normal field of .
