Equality of Segre–Stiefel–Whitney classes for Morin and corank-two singularities
Equality of Segre–Stiefel–Whitney classes for Morin and corank-two singularities
Let be an integer, and let and denote the corresponding singularity loci. Their Segre–Stiefel–Whitney classes are defined in the setting of the paper. Segre–Stiefel–Whitney class equality conjecture. The Segre-SW classes of and are equal. This conjecture is motivated by computations showing equality up to degree for and up to degree for , but no general proof is given.
