Abstract:The class of special generic maps is a natural class of smooth maps containing Morse functions on spheres with exactly two singular points and the canonical projections of unit spheres. We present new general restrictions on such maps on 6-dimensional closed and simply-connected manifolds.Spheres which are not diffeomorphic to unit spheres do not admit such maps whose codimensions are negative in considerable cases. They restrict the homeomorphism and the diffeomorphism types of the manifolds in general. On th… Show more
“…Restrictions on the homology groups have been also studied. As a pioneer, the author launched explicit systematic studies on the cohomology rings of the manifolds in [14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,24] for example.…”

Special-generic-like maps or SGL maps are introduced by the author motivated by observing and investigating algebraic topological or differential topological properties of manifolds via nice smooth maps whose codimensions are negative. The present paper says that manifolds admitting certain very explicit SGL maps are topologically restricted strongly and this also constructs these maps with the manifolds explicitly.Morse functions with exactly two singular points on spheres or functions in Reeb's theorem and canonical projections of naturally embedded spheres in Euclidean spaces are generalized as special generic maps. Their nice global structures make us study such maps and the manifolds. Manifolds represented as connected sums of the product of spheres and similar ones admit such maps in considerable cases. The topologies and the differentiable structures of the manifolds of the domains of such maps are also strongly restricted: due to Saeki and Sakuma, followed by Nishioka, Wrazidlo and the author. Respecting their nice global structures, these maps are generalized and this yields SGL maps.
