Nov 12, 2017 at 9:36 comment added Ali Taghavi @NickL But I think that the curve you mentioned is a trivial loop. Am I correct?
Nov 5, 2017 at 17:27 comment added Nick L Probably it would have been more accurate to say "the class of this curve doesn't die in the embedding" (This argument wouldn't rely on the image being dense).
Nov 5, 2017 at 17:22 comment added Nick L If one connect sums two tori to get a genus two surface, then this separating curve is the curve that corresponds to the boundary of the two disks that were cut out to make the connect sum.
Nov 5, 2017 at 17:13 comment added Ali Taghavi @NickL But the comment of Prof. Goodwillie says there is no an open set of the torus homeomorphic to the $M_2 \setminus \{pt\}$. He does not consider compactification. BTW waht is that separating non trivial closed curve on $M_2$.
Nov 5, 2017 at 16:52 comment added Nick L Perhaps use the fact that the genus two surface contains a separating curve which is non-trivial in $\pi_{1}$, You just have to prove that the class of this curve doesn't die in the compactification.

Nov 5, 2017 at 11:51 comment added Ali Taghavi @TomGoodwillie what is the reason of this non embedding property?Are you using relative homology? However this non embedding is obvious intutively but i can not find a proof for that.Thanks for your attention to my question.
Nov 4, 2017 at 12:38 comment added Tom Goodwillie No. The complement of a point in an oriented surface of genus 2 cannot be embedded in a torus or a Klein bottle.

Nov 3, 2017 at 20:59 comment added Ali Taghavi @MichaelAlbanese Thank you for sharing the link. I revise the question with emphasize on on "zero Euler characteristic.
Nov 3, 2017 at 20:49 comment added Michael Albanese Possible duplicate of Compactification of a manifold
Nov 3, 2017 at 20:35 comment added Nick L I guess you want to assume that $M$ has finite topological type (for example it has CW complex structure with finite number of cells). Otherwise it can never embed in a compact manifold (consider surface with infinite genus for example).
Nov 3, 2017 at 20:34 comment added Neal @MichaelAlbanese I was thinking too rigidly. Thank you.
Nov 3, 2017 at 20:32 comment added Michael Albanese @Neal: Once you remove the pinch point, what's left is homeomorphic to a cylinder which embeds in a torus.
Nov 3, 2017 at 20:30 comment added Neal Pinch a torus and remove the pinch point. The result is an open connected manifold. How would you compactify this so that the result is a manifold?
