Path concordances as detectors of codimension-one manifold factors
arXiv:0903.3055 · doi:10.2140/gtm.2006.9.7
Abstract
We present a new property, the Disjoint Path Concordances Property, of an ENR homology manifold X which precisely characterizes when X times R has the Disjoint Disks Property. As a consequence, X times R is a manifold if and only if X is resolvable and it possesses this Disjoint Path Concordances Property.
