Are manifolds almost diffeomorphic to $mathbb{R}^n$?












3












$begingroup$


Let $M$ be an $n$-dimensional compact connected orientable smooth manifold. Can we always find a diffeomorphism
$$Msetminus S_1congmathbb{R}^nsetminus S_2$$
where $S_1subset M$ and $S_2subsetmathbb{R}^n$ are subsets of measure zero?

    Put any (smooth) Riemannian metric on $M$ and let $S_1=operatorname{Cut}(p)$...
