Cobordism is a fundamental equivalence relation on the class of compact manifolds of the same dimension, set up using the concept of the boundary of a manifold.

(Algebraic) cobordism and the rank function

Let me first write what happens for classical cobordism. You are basically asking whether the map $\operatorname{MU}\to H\mathbb{Z}$ factors through the projection $\operatorname{ku}\to H\mathbb{Z}$. …

Basic question on the cobordism spectrum

A simple way of seeing it is to explicitly spell out what we mean when we say that a spectrum is "presented" by a prespectrum. To say that that a spectrum $E$ is presented by $$(E_0,E_1,...)$$ means t …

Are there non trivial maps from $H\mathbb{Z}$ to $MGL$?

NO such a map does not exist. Thanks to Eric Peterson for making me realize that the argument carries through even if the map is not a map of algebras. By rigidity,you can only consider the case whe …

Künneth formulas/theorem for bordism groups and cobordisms?

For a general well-behaved homology theory[1] (this includes both ordinary cohomology, K-theory and cobordism) there is a Künneth spectral sequence $$E^2_{p,q}=\mathrm{Tor}_{p,q}^{E_*}(E_*X,E_*Y)\Rightarrow …
