Turning cocycles in cobordism into an inclusion or a fibering

By the classical Pontryagin-Thom construction, we know that the cobordism group $\Omega^n_U(X)$ is represented by cocyles $$ M\hookrightarrow X\times \mathbb{R}^{2k}\rightarrow X,$$ where $M$ is a manifold …

Geometric interpretation of pairing between bordism and cobordism

In page 448 of these notes, a pairing between bordism and cobordism $$\langle \ ,\ \rangle: U^m(X)\otimes U_n(X)\rightarrow \Omega^U_{n-m}$$ is defined as follows. … I also would like to know is there any known conditions on when can a cobordism class $x\in U^m(X)$ could be represented by an embedding $M\hookrightarrow X$ (when $0\leq m\leq \mathrm{dim}X $), or a fiber …
