Extract

In this note I will give new, simplified proofs of some of the results announced in (18) and proved in ((19), I, § 4, II, §§ 2, 9).These results mostly date from 1975/6 at which time they were proved using my crude stable decomposition of ωn σnX (20) and differential-geometric techniques with the Becker-Gottlieb transfer. Since then more systematic approaches have been developed towards the stable decompositions ((4); (5); (6); (10); (12)) and towards the transfer ((7), I and II; (8)). Actually, the system-atization of the stable decompositions was already latent in (15) if only I had realized it!
