As an explanation of this fact we provide an explicit regular homotopy from the immersion ∅m to another map essentially given by a polynomial self map of S m−1 whose degree equals the Whitney invariant of ∅m mod 2. Another choice of a polynomial self-map of S m−1 yields an immersion in the regular homotopy class of ∅m whose Whitney invariant is visible from its double point set.

We give an elementary proof that the Platonic polihedra; tetrahedom, octaedronm and icosahedrom are the solutions for 4, 5 and 12 respectively, based on the determination of the triangles with minmun area. We higlight the concept of star of a vertex, and how the determination of the minimun area stars lead to the solution for the cases 8 and 24.

For mk odd, we are only able to calculate K 0 (X m,k), but this is sufficient to determine the order of the complexified Hopf bundle over X m,k .

And then it is also true that if there is a nonsingular skew-skew map R'"+1 x n•+ 1-+ n>+•, then there is one which is linear-skew. This result answers affirmatively a question raised by Daniel B. Shapiro in (10], relating skew-skew maps with linear-skew maps. §2. Proof of Theorem 1.6. Remember that O :s m :s n :s k, and write m = 2' + a, n = 2' + b, k = 2' + c, where O :s a < 2', 0 < b < 2' and O :s c < 2'.
