Embeddings in Generalized Manifolds   (J. Bryant and W. Mio)

We establish analogues of Hudson's embedding theorem for embeddings of PL manifolds into generalized manifolds with the disjoint disks property. We prove that, under appropriate connectivity hypothesis, any map can be homotoped to a tame embedding, as well as a controlled version of this result. We also obtain general position theorems and a Whitney trick for separating submanifolds with zero intersection number.
