Keywords:
neat embedding; Hilbert manifold; manifold with smooth boundary; normal bundle manifold; collar neighbourhood
Summary:
In this paper we prove the existence of a closed neat embedding of a Hausdorff paracompact Hilbert manifold with smooth boundary into $H \times [0, + \infty)$, where $H$ is a Hilbert space, such that the normal space in each point of a certain neighbourhood of the boundary is contained in $H \times \{ 0 \}$. Then, we give a neccesary and sufficient condition that a Hausdorff paracompact topological space could admit a differentiable structure of class $\infty$ with smooth boundary.
