Abstract

Let f:VnMmf:V^n\looparrowright M^m be a smooth generic immersion. Then the set of points, that have at least kk preimages is an image of a (non-generic) immersion. If the manifolds VnV^n and MmM^m are oriented and mnm-n is even, then the manifold of kk-fold points is also oriented. In this paper we compute the oriented bordism class of the manifold of kk-fold points in terms of the differential dfdf, provided the tangent bundle of the manifold MmM^m has a nowhere zero cross-section.
