Özet

Stable homotopy groups and a few of the unstable homotopy groups

of the homogeneous spaces SO(2n)/U(s) and U(2n)/Sp(s) for s < n,

and those of SO(4n)/Sp(s) for s <_ n are computed. The enumeration

of homotopy classes of normalized almost complex (n--1) and (n- 2)

substructures with oriented framed complements are given. Some results about

the existence of the equivariant cross sections of these homogeneous spaces

over the spheres with respect to certain unitary group actions are proved
