Desingularizing special generic maps (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
This is a joint work with Osamu Saeki (IMI, Kyushu University).
A special generic map is a generic map which has only definite
fold as its singularities.
We study the condition for a special generic map from a closed
n-manifold to the p-space (n+1>p), to factor through a codimension
one immersion (or an embedding). In particular, for the cases
where p = 1 and 2 we obtain complete results.
Our techniques are related to Smale-Hirsch theory,
topology of the space of immersions, relation between the space
of topological immersions and that of smooth immersions,
sphere eversions, differentiable structures of homotopy spheres,
diffeomorphism group of spheres, free group actions on the sphere, etc.
