We next study a filtration of the group of homotopy self-equivalences of a given manifold P by considering singularities of non-negative {\cal K}-codimensions.Typographic errors are revised and several expressions are modified to better onesGeometric Topology58K30; 57R45Smooth maps with singularities of bounded K-codimensionstext
