Hi, everyone:
A couple of things:
1) I wonder if someone can give me a good explanation/ref. for "regular neighborhood"
of a manifold. The standard Google searches have not been enough to find a clear
def; some hits require reading some 10 pages, others just seem unclear.
2) Does anyone know of example of cycles that are zero in homology but not
in homotopy or viceversa?. I know the result of homology being the Abelianization
of Pi_1 , but I don't know well what this map does at the level of individual
cycles/classes.
Thanks.
