Abstract
We prove a surface embedding theorem for 4–manifolds with good fundamental group in the presence of dual spheres, with no restriction on the normal bundles. The new obstruction is a Kervaire–Milnor invariant for surfaces and we give a combinatorial formula for its computation. For this we introduce the notion of band characteristic surfaces.
