For , determine the number of distinct
-bundles over
.
For , let
be a nullhomotopic embedding. For
spin, show that there is more than one possible effect for a surgery on this embedding.
Now suppose is simply connected. For
not spin, show that the effect of a surgery on this embedding is uniquely determined (difficult!).
