Characteristic Classes
These are lecture notes for a series of five lectures I gave to other graduate students about characteristic classes through UT Austin’s summer minicourse program (see https://www.ma.utexas.edu/users/ richard.wong/Minicourses.html for more details). Beware of potential typos. In these notes I cover the basic theory of Stiefel-Whitney, Wu, Chern, Pontrjagin, and Euler classes, introducing some i...
متن کاملCohomology and Characteristic Classes
We prove Poincar e Duality for L p cohomology, 1 p 1 We study the pairings between L p and L 1 and construct characteristic classes.
متن کاملCharacteristic Classes and Fredholm Modules
We derive simple explicit formula for the character of a cycle in the Connes’ (b, B)-bicomplex of cyclic cohomology and apply it to write formulas for the equivariant Chern character and characters of finitely-summable bounded Fredholm modules.
متن کاملM-theory and characteristic classes
In this note we show that the Chern-Simons and the one-loop terms in the M-theory action can be written in terms of new characters involving the M-theory four-form and the string classes. This sheds a new light on the topological structure behind M-theory and suggests the construction of a theory of “higher” characteristic classes.

متن کاملCharacteristic Classes and Quadric Bundles
In this paper we construct Stiefel-Whitney and Euler classes in Chow cohomology for algebraic vector bundles with nondegenerate quadratic form. These classes are not in the algebra generated by the Chern classes of such bundles and are new characteristic classes in algebraic geometry. On complex varieties, they correspond to classes with the same name pulled back from the cohomology of the clas...
