Automorphisms of manifolds and algebraic K-theory

Automorphisms of manifolds and algebraic K-theory / Michael S. Weiss, Bruce E. Williams.

The structure space \mathcal{S}(M) of a closed topological m-manifold M classifies bundles whose fibers are closed m-manifolds equipped with a homotopy equivalence to M. The authors construct a highly connected map from \mathcal{S}(M) to a concoction of algebraic L-theory and algebraic K-theory spac...

Description
Summary:The structure space \mathcal{S}(M) of a closed topological m-manifold M classifies bundles whose fibers are closed m-manifolds equipped with a homotopy equivalence to M. The authors construct a highly connected map from \mathcal{S}(M) to a concoction of algebraic L-theory and algebraic K-theory spaces associated with M. The construction refines the well-known surgery theoretic analysis of the block structure space of M in terms of L-theory.
