h-Cobordism Theorem

If is a Simply Connected, Compact Manifold with a boundary that has two components, and , suchthat inclusion of each is a Homotopy equivalence, then is Diffeomorphic to the product for . In other words, if and are two simply connectedManifolds of Dimension and there exists an h-Cobordism between them, then is a product and is Diffeomorphic to .


The proof of the -cobordism theorem can be accomplished using Surgery. A particular case of the -cobordism theoremis the Poincaré Conjecture in dimension . Smale proved this theorem in 1961.
