In this paper we prove geometric residue theorems for bundle maps over a compact manifold. The theory developed associates residues to the singularity submanifolds of the map for any invariant polynomial. The theory is then applied to a variety of settings: smooth maps between equidimensional manifolds, CR-singularitie…

Our relations yield strong restrictions on the cobordism class of M and also nonexistence results for singular maps of the projective spaces. We obtain our results through blowing up a manifold along the singular set of a sm…
