A general type of twisted anomaly cancellation formulas
نویسندگان
چکیده
For even dimensional manifolds, we prove some twisted anomaly cancellation formulas which generalize some well-known cancellation formulas. For odd dimensional manifolds, we obtain some modularly invariant characteristic forms by the Chern-Simons transgression and we also get some twisted anomaly cancellation formulas. Subj.

Modular Invariance and Twisted Anomaly Cancellations for Characteristic Numbers
By studying modular invariance properties of some characteristic forms, we obtain twisted anomaly cancellation formulas. We apply these twisted cancellation formulas to study divisibilities on spin manifolds and congruences on spinc manifolds. Especially, we get twisted Rokhlin congruences for 8k + 4 dimensional spinc manifolds.
متن کاملTransgression and twisted anomaly cancellation formulas on odd dimensional manifolds
We compute the transgressed forms of some modularly invariant characteristic forms, which are related to the twisted elliptic genera. We study the modularity properties of these secondary characteristic forms and relations among them. We also get some twisted anomaly cancellation formulas on some odd dimensional manifolds. Subj.

متن کاملGravitational anomaly cancellation and modular invariance
In this paper, by combining modular forms and characteristic forms, we obtain general anomaly cancellation formulas of any dimension. For .4kC 2/–dimensional manifolds, our results include the gravitational anomaly cancellation formulas of Alvarez-Gaumé and Witten in dimensions 2, 6 and 10 [1] as special cases. In dimension 4k C 1 , we derive anomaly cancellation formulas for index gerbes. In d...
