Poincaré embedding-to-mapping conjecture

Let NN and PP be Poincaré spaces, and let Q1,,QrQ_1,\dots,Q_r be Poincaré spaces embedded in NN. Let EF(P,NQ)\mathit{EF}(P,N-Q_\bullet) denote the (r+1)(r+1)-cube obtained from the cube of Poincaré embedding spaces by mapping each embedding to its underlying map. Assume the homotopy codimension hypotheses and r1r\geq1. Poincaré embedding-to-mapping conjecture. The (r+1)(r+1)-cube EF(P,NQ)\mathit{EF}(P,N-Q_\bullet) is (n2p1)(n-2p-1)-cartesian. This is a stronger comparison estimate than the corresponding embedding-disjunction statement and is intended to hold without handle codimension restrictions.
