Abstract: The main ingredient of the algebraic cobordism of M. Levine and F. Morel is a cobordism cycle of the form (MxrightarrowhX;L1,cdots,Lr) with a proper map h from a smooth variety M and line bundles Li's over M. In this paper we consider a emph{cobordism bicycle} of a finite set of line bundles (XxleftarrowpVxrightarrowsY;L1,cdots,Lr) with a proper map p and a smooth map s and line bundles Li's over V. We will show that the Grothendieck group mathscrZ∗(X,Y) of the abelian monoid of the isomorphism classes of cobordism bicycles of finite sets of line bundles satisfies properties similar to those of Fulton-MacPherson's bivariant theory and also that mathscrZ∗(X,Y) is a emph{universal} one among such abelian groups, i.e., for any abelian group mathscrB∗(X,Y) satisfying the same properties there exists a unique Grothendieck transformation gamma:mathscrZ∗(X,Y)omathscrB∗(X,Y) preserving the unit.
