What is known about exotic spheres up to stable diffeomorphism?
In even dimensions $n=2k$ we can define two smooth manifolds $M$ and $N$ to be stably diffeomorphic if they become diffeomorphic after the connect sum with $r$ many copies of $S^k \times S^k$ for some …

Nilpotence of the stable Hopf map via framed cobordism
I am probably going to conflate these framed manifolds with their classes in frame cobordism. I hope you forgive me. … that $24 \nu = 0$ and I will start there.

Super-cobordisms
There are a number of technical issues with making what you describe precise, for example: what precisely is a supermanifold with boundary? how can you glue/compose bordisms? etc. I am going to ignore …

An orthogonal factorization system on 1-Cob?
[Note: This answer pertains to the orignal version of the question, and no longer applies given the subsequent edits].
To be a weak factorization system you need to factor morphisms as composites $ …

Twistings for other cohomology theories
Twisted forms exist for all multiplicative generalized cohomology theories. A nice paper which discusses a modern point of view for twists of homology, K-theory, and TMF is the following paper Twists …

Every Manifold Cobordant to a Simply Connected Manifold
We will construct (using surgery) a cobordism to $M'$ which kills that generator, and by induction we can kill all of $\pi_1$. … Now we build the cobordism. We take $M \times I$, which is a cobordism from $M$ to itself. …
