A relation between compact boundaryless manifolds (also called closed manifolds). Two closed manifolds
are bordant iff their disjoint union is the boundary of a
compact -manifold.
Roughly, two manifolds are bordant if together they
form the boundary of a manifold. The word bordism is
now used in place of the original term cobordism.
