$F:Mto N$ is surjective if $int_M F^* eta ne 0$ for some $eta in Omega^n(N)$

$begingroup$


Let $M$ and $N$ be compact orientable and connected smooth $n$-manifolds and $F:M to N$ a smooth map. Suppose $$int_M F^* eta ne 0$$ for some $eta in Omega^n(N)$. Then $F$ is surjective. Give an example that shows the converse is not true.




A non-surjective map has degree $0$ so the first part is clear. I could not think of an example for the converse, however. I want to find two compact oriented connected manifolds such that $F$ is surjective but $int_M F^* eta = 0$ for all $eta in Omega^n(N)$.

Here is a concrete realization of Mike Miller's comment. Think of $S^1$ as sitting in $mathbb{C}$ and consider the map
begin{align*}
varphi: S^1 & to S^1 \
x+iy & mapsto e^{2pi i x}.
end{align*}
Then $varphi$ is both surjective and null-homotopic and thus serves as a counterexample.
