On bordism groups of immersions. (English) Zbl 0546.57014

Summary: The bordism group of immersions of oriented n-manifolds into \({\mathbb{R}}^{n+k}\) is identified with the stable homotopy group \(\pi^ s_{n+k}(MSO(k)).\) We study these groups for n-2\(\leq k\leq n\), and discuss the behaviour of double points and their relation with the corresponding bordism groups of embeddings.
