The Adams-Riemann-Roch theorem and applications
- Date: 03/26/2008
Lecturer(s):
Damian Roessler (CNRS, Institut de Mathematiques de Jussieu)
Location:
University of British Columbia
Topic:
We shall formulate the Adams-Riemann-Roch theorem, which is a
refinement of the Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem taking into account
torsion. We shall apply the theorem to the de Rham complex. This will
lead to a conjecture on the torsion of the Chern classes of Gauss-Manin
bundles.
