Similarity:

In this paper we investigate the conditions for the suspension homomorphism s : Θ r - 1 F S n - 1 , x 0 Θ r F S n , x 0 is onto or an isomorphism.

On the topological structure of compact 5-manifolds

Alberto Cavicchioli, Fulvia Spaggiari (1993)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We classify the genus one compact (PL) 5-manifolds and prove some results about closed 5-manifolds with free fundamental group. In particular, let M be a closed connected orientable smooth 5 -manifold with free fundamental group. Then we prove that the number of distinct smooth 5 -manifolds homotopy equivalent to M equals the 2 -nd Betti number (mod 2 ) of M .
