1 Introduction
The Milnor hypersurfaces, denoted , are a family of smooth manifolds that generate (with redundancy) the complex bordism ring.
2 Construction and examples
For fixed natural numbers , is defined as the hypersurface in satisfying the equation , where and are homogeneous coordinates for and respectively.
