Stable homeomorphism conjecture for torsion-free fundamental groups
Stable homeomorphism conjecture for torsion-free fundamental groups
Let and be closed, orientable, topological -manifolds that are homotopy equivalent, have torsion-free fundamental group, and have the same Kirby–Siebenmann invariant. Stable homeomorphism conjecture. Then and are stably homeomorphic. The conjecture follows in the simply connected case from Freedman's work and holds when the universal cover is not Spin; the general torsion-free case remains open.
