Cell-like decompositions arising from mismatched sewings: applications to 4-manifolds
Cell-like resolutions of polyhedra by special ones
Suppose that P is a finite 2-polyhedron. We prove that there exists a PL surjective map f:Q → P from a fake surface Q with preimages of f either points or arcs or 2-disks. This yields a reduction of the Whitehead asphericity conjecture (which asserts that every subpolyhedron of an aspherical 2-polyhedron is also aspherical) to the case of fake surfaces. Moreover, if the set of points of P having a neighbourhood homeomorphic to the 2-disk is a disjoint union of open 2-disks, and every point of P...

Centralizers of gap groups
A finite group G is called a gap group if there exists an ℝG-module which has no large isotropy groups except at zero and satisfies the gap condition. The gap condition facilitates the process of equivariant surgery. Many groups are gap groups and also many groups are not. In this paper, we clarify the relation between a gap group and the structures of its centralizers. We show that a nonsolvable group which has a normal, odd prime power index proper subgroup is a gap group.

Champs totalement radiaux sur une structure de Thom-Mather
Dans la première partie de ce travail, on prouve l’existence de champs stratifiés dits totalement radiaux sur un ensemble stratifié abstrait (e.s.a.). Ces champs sont stables et peuvent être choisis continus sur les espaces stratifiés plongés qui sont -réguliers au sens de K. Bekka. Dans la seconde partie, on établit pour ces espaces un théorème de Poincaré-Hopf pour les champs totalement radiaux continus. On en déduit un résultat similaire pour les e.s.a.

Characteristic classes for -bundles
The authors generalize a construction of Connes by defining for an -bundle over smooth manifold and a reduced cyclic cohomology class a sequence of de Rham cohomology classes . Here is a convenient algebra, defined by the authors, and is a locally trivial bundle with standard fibre a right finitely generated projective -module and bounded -modules homomorphisms as transition functions.

Characteristic classes of subfoliations
This paper is devoted to define a characteristic homomorphism for a subfoliation and to study its relation with the usual characteristic homomorphism for each foliation (as defined by Bott). Moreover, two applications are given: 1) the Yamato’s 2-codimensional foliation is shown to be no homotopic to in a (1,2)-codimensional subfoliation; 2) an obstruction to the existence of everywhere independent and transverse infinitesimal transformations of a foliation is obtained, when and these...
