Suspension homotopy of $6$-manifolds

Abstract

For a simply connected closed orientable manifold of dimension $6$, we show its homotopy decomposition after double suspension. This allows us to determine its $K$- and $KO$-groups easily. Moreover, for a special case we refine the decomposition to show the rigidity property of the manifold after double suspension.
