%0 Journal Article %T Cobordism Invariance of the Homotopy Type of the Space of Positive Scalar Curvature Metrics %A Mark Walsh %J Mathematics %D 2011 %I arXiv %X We show that the homotopy type of the space of metrics of positive scalar curvature on a smooth manifold remains unchanged, after application of surgery in codimension at least three to the underlying manifold. This result is originally due to V. Chernysh, but remains unpublished. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1109.6878v1
