| Jul 17, 2018 at 13:48 | comment | added | Saal Hardali | Just a trivial observation: There's a sense in which the Cobordism Hypothesis is a (far reaching) generalization of the Pontryagin Thom theorem about bordism groups. However, the latter relies very heavily on transverality (and is in fact false for topological manifolds). So a topological analog would have to somehow exclude this part of the story. | |
