The purpose of this paper is two-fold: On the one side we would like to close a gap on the classification of vector bundles over $5$-manifolds. Therefore it will be necessary to study quaternionic line bundles over $5$-manifolds which are in $1-1$ correspondence to elements in the first cohomotopy group $\pi^4(M)=[M,S^4]$ of $M$. From previous results this group fits into a short exact sequence, which splits into $H^4(M;\mathbb Z)\oplus\mathbb Z_2$ if $M$ is spin. The second intent is to…

### A counting invariant for maps into spheres and for zero loci of sections of vector bundles

The set of unrestricted homotopy classes $[M,S^n]$ where $M$ is a closed and connected spin $(n+1)$-manifold is called the $n$-th cohomotopy group $\pi^n(M)$ of $M$. Moreover it is known that

### The principal fibration sequence and the second cohomotopy set

Let $p:E -> B$ be a principal fibration with classifying map $w:B -> C$. It is well-known that the group $[X,\Omega C]$ acts on $[X,E]$ with orbit space the image of $p_#$, where \$p_#: [X,E] ->

We generalise the Kreck-Stolz invariants s2 and s3 by defining a new invariant, the t-invariant, for quaternionic line bundles over closed spin- manifolds M of dimension 4k − 1 with H 3 (M;Q) = H 4

### Borsuk's Cohomotopy Groups

In 1936 Borsuk2 [2] indicated how the homotopy classes of maps of a space X into a space Y form a group under rather general conditions. In particular, if Y is an n-sphere and X is a space with dim X

This paper is a contribution to the topological study of vector fields on manifolds. In particular we shall be concerned with the problems of existence of r linearly independent vector fields. For r

We consider 5-manifolds with a contact form arising from a hypo structure [9], which we call hypo-contact. We provide existence conditions for such a structure on an oriented hypersurface of a

We study the intrinsic geometry of hypersurfaces in Calabi-Yau manifolds of real dimension 6 and, more generally, -structures on 5-manifolds defined by a generalized Killing spinor. We prove that in
