(2009-03-06)
We study the phenomenon of chirality in the context of manifolds. An orientable manifold is called amphicheiral if it admits an orientation-reversing self-map and chiral if it does not. In addition to being continuous and ...
On the Classification of Cohomology Bott Manifolds
(2013-11-07)
We study cohomology Bott manifolds by means of modified surgery theory. Cohomology Bott manifolds admit a ring isomorphism to the cohomology ring of a Bott manifold which preserves the Pontrjagin and Stiefel-Whitney classes. ...
