Abstract
Let G~n,k denote the oriented grassmann manifold of orientedk-planes in Rn. It is shown that for any continuous mapf: G~n,k → Gn,k, dim G~n,k=dim G~m,l =l(m-l), the Brouwer’s degree is zero, provided l > 1,n ≠ m. Similar results for continuous maps g: CGm,l → CGn,k,h: HGm,l → HGn,k, 1≤l ≤ k ≤ n/2, k(n-k)=l(m-l) are also obtained.
