Some new nonimmersion result for real projective spaces (Q1758149)

The author proves new nonimmersion results for real projective spaces. The method of proof is the use of the spectrum \(tmf\) to detect nonexistence of axial maps. The narrative and exposition are clear and engaging. The results are best appreciated in the context of the author's [``Table of immersions and embeddings of real projective spaces'', \url{http://www.lehigh.edu/~dmd1/immtable}].
