Abstract

A smooth stably complex manifold is said to be totally tangentially/normally split if its stably tangential/normal bundle is isomorphic to a sum of complex line bundles. It is proved that each class of degree greater than 2 in the graded unitary cobordism ring contains a quasitoric totally tangentially and normally split manifold.
