Regular homotopy classes of singular maps [PDF]
Two locally generic maps f,g : M^n --> R^{2n-1} are regularly homotopic if they lie in the same path-component of the space of locally generic maps. Our main result is that if n is not 3 and M^n is a closed n-manifold then the regular homotopy class of ...

Regular homotopy and total curvature [PDF]
We consider properties of the total absolute geodesic curvature functional on circle immersions into a Riemann surface. In particular, we study its behavior under regular homotopies, its infima in regular homotopy classes, and the homotopy types of ...

Regular homotopy of Hurwitz curves [PDF]
We prove that any two irreducible cuspidal Hurwitz curves $C_0$ and $C_1$ (or more generally, curves with A-type singularities) in the Hirzebruch surface $F_N$ with coinciding homology classes and sets of singularities are regular homotopic; and ...

Homotopy invariance of tame homotopy groups of regular schemes [PDF]
The étale homotopy groups of schemes as defined by Artin and Mazur [1] have the disadvantage of being homotopy invariant only in characteristic zero. This and other related problems led to the definition of the tame topology which is coarser than the ...

Bordism and regular homotopy of low-dimensional immersions [PDF]
To obtain explicit generators for the groups of regular homotopy classes of immersions of the \(k\)-sphere in \(\mathbb{R}^ n\), the author defines an immersion invariant as an element of the \(k\)-th homotopy group of a Stiefel manifold. Using this invariant, he obtains generators for some groups of low-dimensional immersions.

The homotopy sequence for regular singular stratified bundles [PDF]
A separable, proper morphism of varieties with geometrically connected fibers induces a homotopy exact sequence relating the \'etale fundamental groups of source, target and fiber.

Universal Causality is a mathematical framework based on higher-order category theory, which generalizes previous approaches based on directed graphs and regular categories.

Tight surfaces and regular homotopy
Smooth immersions \(f: M^ 2\to E^ 3\) with \(\int_{M}| K| =2\pi (4-\chi (M))\) (tight immersions) are known to exist for all closed surfaces \(M^ 2\) except for the Klein bottle, the projective plane and the surface with \(\chi =-1\) (unknown case). All these examples lie in the standard regular homotopy class of immersions, and in 1960 N. H.

Regular homotopy classes of immersed surfaces
There are two relevant equivalence relations on the set of immersions from a manifold \(M^ m\) into Euclidean space \({\mathbb{R}}^ n:\) regular homotopy and a second coming from the action of diffeomorphisms of M on it. Imposing both relations defines the term ''immersed manifold''.
