Abstract:
This paper surveys the current state of the theory of cobordism, focusing on geometric and universal properties of complex cobordism, the Landweber–Novikov algebra, and the formal group law of geometric cobordisms. The relationships with KK-theory, algebraic cycles, formal group laws, compact Lie group actions on manifolds, toric topology, infinite-dimensional Lie algebras, and nilmanifolds are described. The survey contains key results and open problems.
