Description

Book Synopsis

Following Quillen's approach to complex cobordism, the authors introduce the notion of oriented cohomology theory on the category of smooth varieties over a fixed field. They prove the existence of a universal such theory (in characteristic 0) called Algebraic Cobordism. The book also contains some examples of computations and applications.



Table of Contents
Cobordism and oriented cohomology.- The definition of algebraic cobordism.- Fundamental properties of algebraic cobordism.- Algebraic cobordism and the Lazard ring.- Oriented Borel-Moore homology.- Functoriality.- The universality of algebraic cobordism.
