May 20, 2023 at 3:29 comment added LSpice I’m voting to close this question because it seems better for HSM.
May 20, 2023 at 2:07 comment added Ryan Budney @AllenHatcher: Cerf does not appear to be using the language of pseudoisotopy in 1962/63, so perhaps it wasn't standardized until Milnor's notes?
May 20, 2023 at 1:34 comment added Allen Hatcher I believe Bing used the term pseudo-isotopy in a different sense from what you have in mind. In Bing's sense a pseudo-isotopy is a 1-parameter family of maps $f_t$, $0\leq t\leq 1$, which are homeomorphisms for $t<1$ but with $f_1$ allowed to collapse nontrivial subspaces to points.
