 | | Such a map is called a {\it special generic map}, which was first defined by Burlet and de Rham for $(n, p) = (3, 2)$ and later extended to general $(n, p)$ by Porto, Furuya, Sakuma and Saeki. |
 | | In this paper, we study the global topology of such maps for $p = 3$ and give various new results, among which are a splitting theorem for manifolds admitting special generic maps into ${\bf R}^3$ and a classification theorem of 4- and 5-dimensional manifolds with free fundamental groups admitting special generic maps into ${\bf R}^3$. |
 | | Throughout the paper, manifolds and maps are of class $C^\infty$ and the symbol ^^ ^^ $\cong$" denotes a diffeomorphism between manifolds or an appropriate isomorphism between algebraic objects. |
