Nonzero degree tangential maps between dual symmetric spaces

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 1 (2001) 709–718

arXiv: math.DG/0112316

Abstract

We construct a tangential map from a locally symmetric space of noncompact type to its dual compact type twin. By comparing the induced map in cohomology to a map defined by Matsushima, we conclude that in the equal rank case the map has a nonzero degree.
