SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the difficulty in locating information about the domain-straightening theorem and the range-straightening theorem. Participants mention alternative names for these theorems, specifically "canonical forms for submersion and immersion" as referenced in Gallot-Lafontaine-Hullin. While some resources like the Wikipedia page on the straightening theorem for vector fields were found, they do not provide the specific information sought. The conversation highlights a lack of comprehensive resources detailing the mathematical context of these theorems.
