PRODUCT SPACES THAT INDUCE APPROXIMATE FIBRATIONS

In the study of manifold decompositions, a central theme is to understand the source manifold taking advantage of the informations of a base space and a decomposition. The concepts of both Hurewicz fibrations and cell-like maps have played very important roles for investigating the mutual relations of three objects. But it is somewhat restrictive for a decomposition map to be cell-like because its inverse images must have trivial shapes.
