Subject: reference Date: Mon, 8 Apr 2002 15:20:05 -0400 From: Tom Goodwillie To: Don Davis For the list: An applied math colleague asks where to read about homotopy groups of Grassmannians. (He has had a student working on something with a Morse theory flavor, and they needed to know about the fundamental group of Grassmannian. They were wondering about the rest of the story.) I'll tell him some of the rest of the story, but as usual I don't know what book to recommend. Tom Goodwillie
