Stable algebra in Morse theory

V. V. Sharko

Izvestiya. Mathematics , Tome 36 (1991) no. 3, pp. 629-653.

Résumé

Stable algebra is developed as needed in Morse theory. New estimates are found for the number of critical points of Morse functions, and conditions are found for the existence of minimal Morse functions on non-simply-connected manifolds.
