Abstract

Generalizing the ideas of Zk\mathbb{Z}_k-manifolds from Sullivan and stratifolds from Kreck, we define Zk\mathbb{Z}_k-stratifolds. We show that the bordism theory of Zk\mathbb{Z}_k-stratifolds is sufficient to represent all homology classes of a CWCW-complex with coefficients in Zk\mathbb{Z}_k. We present a geometric interpretation of the Bockstein long exact sequences and the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence for Zk\mathbb{Z}_k-bordism (kk an odd number). Finally, for pp an odd prime, we give geometric representatives of all classes in H(BZp;Zp)H_*(B\mathbb{Z}_p;\mathbb{Z}_p) using Zp\mathbb{Z}_p-stratifolds.
