Miscelaneous Manuscripts

  1. The union of quadratic complexes. This is a note I made trying to understand Andrew Ranicki's union construction of quadratic complexes, which is essential in the controlled L-theory paper.
  2. Splitting construction of quadratic Poincare complexes. This is a (still-not-finished) note I made trying to understand Andrew Ranicki's splitting construction of quadratic Poincare complexes, which is also essential in the controlled L-theory paper.
  3. Elementary Controlled Homotopy Theory. This is also an unfinished manuscript.
  4. Local indices of a vector field at an isolated zero on the boundary (the 4th version, joint with H. Kamae)
