Nonorientable surfaces in homology cobordisms

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate constraints on embeddings of a nonorientable surface in a 4-manifold with the homology of M I, where M I is a rational homology 3-sphere.

Pontryagin squares in the Thom space of a bundle.

TL;DR: In this article, the action of the Pontryagin squares in the cohomology of the Thorn space of a vector bundle is investigated. But the results of the normal bundle of a manifold imbedded in Euclidean space are not applicable to the case of an orientable manifold.

Submanifolds and the Hofer norm

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that for the Chekanov-Hofer pseudometric on the orbit of a closed submanifold to be a genuine metric, it is necessary for the sub-manifolds to be coisotropic, and this condition is sufficient under various additional geometric assumptions.

Non-orientable surfaces in homology cobordisms

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the problem of embedding a non-orientable surface in a 4-manifold with the homology of the genus and normal Euler class of the surface.
