In mathematics , given two submanifold s A and B of a manifold X intersecting in two points p and q , a Whitney disc is a mapping from the two dimensional Disk mathematics disc D , with two marked points, to X , such that the two marked points go to p and q , one boundary arc of D goes to A and the other to B . Their existence and embedding embeddedness is crucial in proving the cobordism theorem , where it is used to cancel the intersection points and its failure in low dimensions corresponds to not being able to embed a Whitney disc.
