Equivariant K-theory of real vector spaces and real projective spaces
The computation of the equivariant K-theory K∗ G(V ) of the Thom space of a real vector bundle has been done successfully only under some spinoriality conditions [1], thanks to a clever use of the Atiyah–Singer index theorem (even if G is a finite group). One purpose of this paper is to fill this gap, at least for real vector spaces (considered as vector bundles over a point). For this purpose,...
متن کاملPoincaré Duality for K-theory of Equivariant Complex Projective Spaces
We make explicit Poincaré duality for the equivariant K-theory of equivariant complex projective spaces. The case of the trivial group provides a new approach to the K-theory orientation [3].
متن کاملEmbeddings of Real Projective Spaces
The question of finding the smallest Euclidean space in which real projective space P n can be (differentiably) embedded was the subject of intense investigation during the 1960s and 1970s. The purpose of this paper is to survey the status of the question, and add a little bit to our knowledge by proving one new family of embeddings, using old methods of obstruction theory. Our new result is gi...
متن کاملPackings in real projective spaces
This paper applies techniques from algebraic and differential geometry to determine how to best pack points in real projective spaces. We present a computer-assisted proof of the optimality of a particular 6-packing in RP, we introduce a linear-time constant-factor approximation algorithm for packing in the so-called Gerzon range, and we provide local optimality certificates for two infinite fa...
متن کاملOn Stable Vector Bundles over Real Projective Spaces
If X is a connected, finite CJF-complex, we can define iKO)~iX) to be [X, BO] (base-point preserving homotopy classes of maps). Recall [2] that if xEiKO)~iX), the geometrical dimension of x (abbreviated g.dim x) can be defined to be the smallest nonnegative integer k such that a representative of x factors through BO(k). If $ is a vector bundle over X, the class in (PO)~(X) of a classifying map...
