Abstract
We show that for a wide class of manifold pairs with , every –injective map factorises up to homotopy as a finite cover of an embedding. This result, in the spirit of Waldhausen’s torus theorem, is derived using Cappell’s surgery methods from a new algebraic splitting theorem for Poincaré duality groups. As an application we derive a new obstruction to the existence of –injective maps.
