Can increasing the winding number of a 2-cell make a CW complex embeddable?
Let $X$ be a 2-dimensional CW complex and let $c\subset X$ be a 2-cell attached along a simple closed loop $\gamma$ in the 1-skeleton $X^{(1)}$.
For a natural number $n\ge 2$ consider the operation of ...

Does every oriented $3$-dimensional submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^6$ bound an oriented $4$-dimensional submanifold?
In my recent research, I encountered the following problem about embeddings. Let $M^3$ be a closed compact oriented smooth $3$-dimensional submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^6$. Does there exist a compact ...

Can a nontrivial $n$-sphere bundle over $M$ embed in $M\times \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$?
Let $\pi\colon E\to M$ be a smooth $S^n$-bundle with structure group $\text{Diff}(S^n)$.
Assume there is a smooth embedding $f:E\to M \times \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ such that $\text{pr}_1 \circ f = \pi$, ...

Is there a notion of "locally flat" for CW complexes?
A submanifold $X^n\subset Y^m$ is locally flat if each point $x\in X$ has a neighborhood $U\subset Y$ so that $(U,U\cap X)\simeq (\Bbb R^m, \Bbb R^n)$ with the standard embedding $\Bbb R^n\...

Compact embeddings RKHSs into Sobolev Spaces
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be an RKHS over an open domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$. Are there conditions under which $\mathcal{H}$ can be compactly embedded in a Sobolev space $W^{s,p}(\Omega)$ for ...

How to properly define a slice knot (or a locally flat disk)?
A knot $K\subset\Bbb S^3=\partial \Bbb D^4$ is said to be (topolopgically) slice if there is a locally flat disk $D\subset\Bbb D^4$ with $\partial D=D\cap \Bbb S^3=K$. As far as I understand, locally ...

Closed regular monomorphism and closed subspace
I have read the categorical definition of embedding, which is that of regular monomorphism. In the case of the category of locally ringed space, is it true that closed subspaces are defined by closed ...

Embeddings of Bochner-Sobolev spaces with second time derivative
NOTE: I also asked this question here in MSE.
In the weak theory of evolution PDEs, the Bochner-Sobolev spaces are frequently used. For $a,b \in \mathbb{R}$ and $X,Y$ banach spaces, we define these ...

"Almost embedding" the complete 2-dimensional complex $\mathcal K_7^2$ into $\Bbb R^4$
Let $\mathcal K_7^2$ be the complete 2-dimensional simplicial complex on seven vertices, i.e. it has all $7\choose 2$ edges and all $7\choose 3$ 2-simplices (and no higher-dimensional simplices).
I ...

Local embedding and disk in domain perturbation
Consider say $M=(\mathbb{S}^1\times\dotsb\times \mathbb{S}^1)-q$ ($n$-times). Assume that $B$ is an $n$ disk in $M$ (for instance, thinking of $\mathbb{S}^1$ as gluing $-1$ and $1$, the cube $B=[-\...

Is there a variant of the crossing lemma for multigraphs with arbitrary embedding?
Suppose $G$ is a graph embedded in the plane with $m=|E(G)|$ edges and $n=|V(G)|$ vertices.
Suppose $\operatorname{sim}(G)$, the simplification of $G$ contains $ m' \gg 3n $ edges.
Call the set of ...

"separators" for nonplanar graphs embedded in the plane
Given a nonplanar graph $G$ drawn in the plane with crossings.
Does there exist a small ($o(|V(G)|$) subset $S$ of edges of $G$ such that after the removal of all edges that intersect or share an ...

Constants in the entropy number of the Sobolev space
For a Sobolev space with $W^s(\Omega)$, where $\Omega\subset R^d$ is a compact space with smooth boundary, we know that the entropy number satisfies $e(\delta, W^s(\Omega, 1),\|\cdot\|_{L_\infty})\leq ...
