Foundational Essays on Topological Manifolds, Smoothings, and Triangulations. (AM-88), Volume 88
Since Poincaré's time, topologists have been most concerned with three species of manifold. The most primitive of these--the TOP manifolds--remained rather mysterious until 1968, when Kirby discovered his now famous torus unfurling device. A period of rapid progress with TOP manifolds ensued, including, in 1969, Siebenmann's refutation of the Hauptvermutung and the Triangulation Conjecture. Here is the first connected account of Kirby's and Siebenmann's basic research in this area. The five sections of this book are introduced by three articles by the authors that initially appeared between 1968 and 1970. Appendices provide a full discussion of the classification of homotopy tori, including Casson's unpublished work and a consideration of periodicity in topological surgery.
Acne
Emphasis is place on the knowledge of the disease, its investigation and its treatment. Invaluable for the training dermatologists and physicians completing their specialist training.
Dermatology
Completely revised and updated, Dermatology covers all the classical and related fields of dermatology, providing a wealth of information on clinical features, pathophysiology, and differential diagnosis. Over 900 color photographs acquaint the reader with a variety of dermatological diseases. Each chapter contains detailed proposals for comprehensive therapy.
Induction Theorems for Groups of Homotopy Manifold Structures
Classifying spaces in surgery theory were first used by Sullivan and Casson in their (independent) unpublished work on the Hauptvermutung for PL manifolds. In his 1968 Ph.D. thesis, F. Quinn developed a general theory of surgery classifying spaces, realizing the Wall surgery groups as the homotopy groups [italic]L[subscript]*([italic]G) = [lowercase Greek]Pi[subscript]*([italic]L([italic]G)) of a spectrum of manifold n-ad surgery problems with fundamental group G. This work presents a detailed account of Quinn's theory. Geometric methods are used to view the Sullivan-Wall manifold structure sequence as an exact sequence of abelian groups (as suggested by Quinn). The intersection of the known induction theorems for generalized cohomology groups and [italic]L-groups then gives an induction theorem for the structure sequence with finite [italic]G.
