Parity-vanishing surjectivity conjecture for Hilbert-manifold cobordism

About 22 years old · traced to

Let XX be a separable Hilbert manifold, and let

ρ:U∗(X)⟶lim⁡M↓X←MU∗(M)\rho:\mathcal U^*(X)\longrightarrow\displaystyle\lim_{\overleftarrow{M\downarrow X}}MU^*(M)

be the homomorphism obtained by restricting classes along all proper smooth maps from finite-dimensional manifolds MM to XX. Write Uev⁡(X)\mathcal U^{\operatorname{ev}}(X) and Uodd(X)\mathcal U^{\mathrm{odd}}(X) for the even and odd parts of U∗(X)\mathcal U^*(X).

Parity-vanishing surjectivity conjecture. If Uev⁡(X)=0\mathcal U^{\operatorname{ev}}(X)=0 or Uodd(X)=0\mathcal U^{\mathrm{odd}}(X)=0, then ρ\rho is a surjection.

This is a conditional refinement of the general inverse-limit surjectivity claim. The source gives it as a reasonable conjecture consistent with the examples under consideration; no resolution is stated.
