On immersions and embeddings with trivial normal line bundles

Let $Z$ be a smooth compact $(n+1)$-manifold. We study smooth embeddings and immersions $\beta: M \to Z$ of compact or closed $n$-manifolds $M$ such that the normal line bundle $\nu^\beta$ is trivialized. For a fixed $Z$, we introduce an equivalence relation between such $\beta$'s; it is a crossover between pseudo-isotopies and bordisms. We call this equivalence relation ``{\sf quasitopy}". It comes in two flavors: $\mathsf{IMM}(Z)$ and $\mathsf{EMB}(Z)$, based on immersions and embeddings into $Z$, respectively. We prove that the natural map $\mathsf{A}:\mathsf{EMB}(Z) \to \mathsf{IMM}(Z)$ is injective and admits a right inverse $\mathsf{R}:\mathsf{IMM}(Z) \to \mathsf{EMB}(Z)$, induced by the resolution of self-intersections. As a result, we get a map $$\mathcal B\Sigma:\; \mathsf{IMM}(Z) \big/ \mathsf{A}(\mathsf{EMB}(Z)) \longrightarrow \bigoplus_{k \in [2, n+1]} \mathbf B_{n+1-k}(Z)$$ whose target is a collection of smooth bordism groups of the space $Z$ and which differentiate between immersions and embeddings.
