For questions about spin manifolds, the groups $\operatorname{Spin}(n)$, as well as generalisations such as $\operatorname{Pin}^{\pm}(n)$ and $\operatorname{Spin}^c(n)$. This tag should also be used for any questions about the geometry of spin manifolds, including questions involving Dirac operators and the Lichnerowicz formula.

Is spin cobordism an invariant for surgery of codimension $q\ge3$?

Yes. Consider the trace $tr$ of the surgery: Take $D^{n-q+1}\times D^q$ with boundary $\partial(D^{n-q+1}\times D^q) = (S^{n-q}\times D^q)\cup (D^{n-q+1}\times S^{q-1})$ and glue the $(S^{n-q}\time …
