Research Abstract |
In this research, we have developed our study on transfer maps of sphere bundles with stressing the following points : To extend the efficiency of the transfer maps concerning projective spaces ; to apply the results of such transfer maps to investigate various bundles. As some of results, we have got the following : 1. By representing the cofiber of the transfer maps using some Thom spaces, we clarified the methods of computing the e-invariants of the transfer maps, and extended some results for the transfer maps related to the projective spaces. 2. We analyzed the cases when a vector bundle is stably equivalent to the sum of line bundles. In such cases the e-invariants are represented by using some combinatorics. 3. We applied some sorts of transfer maps to the study on representing of elements in the stable homotopy groups of spheres by framed hypersurfaces. Our results appeared and will appear in : M. Imaoka and K . Kuwana : Stably extendible vector bundles over the quaternionic projective spaces, Hiroshima Math. J. 29(1999), 273-279. M. Imaoka and K. Knapp : Transfer maps of sphere bundles, J. Math. Soc. Japan, 52(2000), in print.
