Given smooth manifolds $V^n$ and $M^m$, an integer $k$, and an immersion $f:V\looparrowright M$, we have constructed an obstruction for existence of regular homotopy of $f$ to an immersion $f':V\looparrowright M$ without $k$-fold points. This obstruction takes values in certain framed bordism group, and for $(k+1)(n+1)\leq km$ turns out to be complete.
In this short notice we give a universal definition of $\Z_2$-module $Or(Γ)$ of orientations of a graph $Γ$ and construct a method, by means of which one can easily verify whenever two such special definitions coincide.
Let $f:V^n\looparrowright M^m$ be a smooth generic immersion. Then the set of points, that have at least $k$ preimages is an image of a (non-generic) immersion. If the manifolds $V^n$ and $M^m$ are oriented and $m-n$ is even, then the manifold of $k$-fold points is also oriented. In this paper we compute the oriented bordism class of the manifold of $k$-fold points in terms of the differential $df$, provided the tangent bundle of the manifold $M^m$ has a nowhere zero cross-section.
