For starters the braid looks as follows:
Filling in the -groups (which were computed by Kervaire and Milnor), the homotopy groups of the orthogonal group (which are given by Bott periodicity), the framed bordism groups (which were shown to be the stable stems by Pontryagin and in low dimensions computed by Serre), and the -homomorphism (which was computed by Adams and Quillen, but can be computed by hand in low dimensions) we arrive at
where we have used to denote the map induced by the Kervaire invariant . Using that this is surjective ( with its Lie-group framing has Kervaire-invariant ) and the fact that the signature of an almost framed -manifold is divisible by (and is actually the signature of ???), we obtain the following maps:
The extension at is split since it surjects onto (right lower map) which is free. Clearing this and the obvious 's, we find:
This in particular implies the smooth Poincaré conjecture in dimension , which is not covered by the usual collary of the -cobordism theorem. The possibilities for are and , since it is simultaneously an extension of by and whose common factors are and . The map into it from the upper is then given by or , respectively. However since the map along the upper row is surjective only the third possibility remains. We finally arrive at:
