A note on codimension $2$ spun embedding

Abstract

We prove that if a closed manifold $B$ is a connected component of the binding of an open book decomposition of a manifold $M$, then every open book decomposition of $B$ spun embeds in $M$. As an application, we prove that every open book decomposition of a simply connected spin $5$-manifold spun embeds in $S^7$ and every $3$-dimensional open book spun embeds in $S^5$. We also define a notion of spun embedding for Morse open books.
