Fact: The spin cobordism is equivalent to "KO" theory in low dimension if we only consider the 2-torsion. This is related to a question and an answer supports the claim. Here we denote the $p$-...

We know that the Arf-Brown-Kervaire (abk) invariant is a bordism invariant of $$ \Omega_2^{Pin^-}(pt)=\mathbb{Z}/(8\mathbb{Z}), $$ where the $\mathbb{Z}/(8\mathbb{Z})$ is generated by a 2-manifold $M^...

This is a follow up more advanced question following Twisted spin bordism invariants in 5 dimensions. We follow the definitions in the earlier post. I had discussed my computation of $$ \Omega_5^{...

Let a group $G=G_1 \times G_2$, where $G_1$ is a discrete group (can be finite or infinite), $G_2$ be any compact Lie group or finite group. Question: Is there some simple result that we can ...
