On bases and maximal ideals in semigroups
We calculate the structure sets in the sense of surgery theory of total spaces of bundles over eight-dimensional sphere with fibre a seven-dimensional sphere, in which manifolds homotopy equivalent to the total spaces are organized, and we investigate the question, which of the elements in these structure sets can be realized as such bundles.
Extending work of many authors we calculate the higher simple structure sets of lens spaces in the sense of surgery theory with the fundamental group of arbitrary order. As a corollary we also obtain a calculation of the simple structure sets of the products of lens spaces and spheres of dimension grater or equal to .
