Strong surjectivity of mappings of some 3-complexes into 3-manifolds

Claudemir Aniz (2006)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let K be a CW-complex of dimension 3 such that H³(K;ℤ) = 0, and M a closed manifold of dimension 3 with a base point a ∈ M. We study the problem of existence of a map f: K → M which is strongly surjective, i.e. such that MR[f,a] ≠ 0. In particular if M = S¹ × S² we show that there is no f: K → S¹ × S² which is strongly surjective. On the other hand, for M the non-orientable S¹-bundle over S² there exists a complex K and f: K → M such that MR[f,a] ≠ 0.

Strong surjectivity of mappings of some 3-complexes into M Q 8

Claudemir Aniz (2008)

Open Mathematics

Let K be a CW-complex of dimension 3 such that H 3(K;ℤ) = 0 and M Q 8 the orbit space of the 3-sphere 𝕊 3 with respect to the action of the quaternion group Q 8 determined by the inclusion Q 8 ⊆ 𝕊 3 . Given a point a ∈ M Q 8 , we show that there is no map f:K → M Q 8 which is strongly surjective, i.e., such that MR[f,a]=min(g −1(a))|g ∈ [f] ≠ 0.
