Talk:Borel Conjecture for the 2-torus (Ex)

Suggestion:

1. Note that the dimensions must be equal.

2. Use the homotopy classification of surfaces, so both surfaces must be $T^2$$<wikitex>; Suggestion: 1. Note that the dimensions must be equal. 2. Use the homotopy classification of surfaces, so both surfaces must be $T^2$. 3. Use the square model for the torus with edges identified, lying in a grid. Assume WLOG that the map preserves orientation. Homotope the map to the identity map. </wikitex>T^2$.
