Kazarian, connecting two classifying spaces in singularity theory. These spaces are: - Kazarian's space (generalizing Vassiliev's algebraic complex and) showing which cohomology classes are represented by singularity strata. - Author's space $X_\\tau$ giving homotopy representation of cobordisms of singular maps with a given list of allowed singularities \\cite{R--Sz}. As a consequence we obtain the ranks of cobordism groups of singular maps with a given list of allowed singularities, and also their $p$-torsion parts for big primes $p.$ Further we give complete answer to the problem of elimination of singularities by cobordisms. Obtain very clear homotopical description of the classifying space $X_\\tau.$ We reveal some connection of the torsion parts of these cobordism groups to the stable homotopy groups of spheres and values of Thom polynomials.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2008-07-28T11:50:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57R45", "55P42" ], "keywords": [ "singular maps", "cobordism groups", "torsion parts", "generalizing vassilievs algebraic complex", "classifying space" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math.....12152S" } } }
