1 Introduction
For a general introduction to embeddings as well as the notation and conventions used on this page, we refer to [Skopenkov2016c, 1, 3]. In those pages mostly results for closed manifolds are stated.
In this page we present results peculiar for manifold with non-empty boundary.
If the category is omitted, then a result stated below holds in both the smooth and piecewise-linear (PL) category.
We state only the results that can be deduced from the Haefliger-Weber deleted product criterion [Skopenkov2006, 5], see [Haefliger1963, 6.4], [Skopenkov2002, Theorem 1.1] for the DIFF case and [Skopenkov2002, Theorem 1.3] for the PL case. Usually there exist easier direct proofs then deduction from this criterion. Sometimes we give references to direct proofs but we do not claim to provide references to the original proofs of stated results.
Theorem 1.1. Every -manifold with nonempty boundary PL embeds into .
This result can be found in [Horvatic1971, Theorem 5.2]
2 Unknotting Theorems
Theorem 2.1. Assume that is a compact -manifold and either
(a) or
(b) is connected and .
Then any two embeddings of into are isotopic.
The condition (a) stands for General Position Theorem and the condition (b) stands for Whitney-Wu Unknotting Theorem, see Theorems 2.1 and 2.2 respectively of [Skopenkov2016c, 2].
Theorem 2.2. Assume that is a compact connected -manifold with non-empty boundary and either
(a) or
(b) is -connected, .
Then any two embeddings of into are isotopic.
Part (a) of this theorem in case can be found in [Edwards1968, 4, Corollary 5]. Case is clear. Case has a short direct proof or can be deduced from Haefliger-Weber deleted product criterion [Skopenkov2006, Theorem 5.5].
Theorem 2.2 is a special cases of the following result, see [Zeeman1963, Corollary 2 of Theorem 24 in Chapter 8], [Haefliger1961, Existence Theorem (b) in p. 47].
Theorem 2.3. Assume that is a closed -connected -manifold. Then for each , any two embeddings of into are isotopic.
See Remark 1.2 (d)(ii) of [Skopenkov2016c, 1].
Theorem 2.4. Assume that is a -connected -manifold with non-empty boundary. Then for each and any two embeddings of into are isotopic.
