Constructing manifolds by homotopy equivalences I. An obstruction to constructing PL-manifolds from homology manifolds
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Tome 22 (1972) no. 1, pp. 271-286

We aim at constructing a PL-manifold which is cellularly equivalent to a given homology manifold M n . The main theorem says that there is a unique obstruction element in H n-4 (M,ℋ 3 ), where ℋ 3 is the group of 3-dimensional PL-homology spheres modulo those which are the boundary of an acyclic PL-manifold. If the obstruction is zero and M is compact, we obtain a PL-manifold which is simple homotopy equivalent to M.

Nous visons à construire une variété semi-linéaire qui est cellulairement équivalente à une variété homologique M n donnée. Le théorème dit qu’il y a un élément d’obstruction unique dans H n-4 (M;ℋ 3 ), où ℋ 3 est un groupe de sphères homologiques qui sont des variétés semi-linéaires. Les éléments triviaux de ℋ 3 sont ceux qui sont un bord d’une variété semi-linéaire acyclique. Si l’obstruction est zéro et M compacte, nous obtenons une variété semi-linéaire qui est simplement homotopiquement équivalente à M.
