چکیده
Svctan, D., New plethysm operation, Checn characters of exterior and symmetric powers with applications to Stiefel-Whitney classes of gcassmannians, Theoretical Computer Science 117 (1993) 289-301. In this paper a new plethysm operation is proposed and a technique for coefficient extraction for a fairly general class of symmetric power series (e.g. multiplicative sequences of the theory of ?chacactecistic classes) is developed, together with various applications.

Characteristic 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...
متن کاملStiefel-whitney Classes for Representations of Groups
Associated to a compact Lie group G is the abelian group P(G) of total Stiefel-Whitney classes of representations. In certain cases the rank of P(G) is equal to the number of conjugacy classes of involutions in G. For the symmetric groups Sn, the total Stiefel-Whitney class of the regular representation is highly divisible in P(Sn) and this implies the existence of 'global' Dickson invariants i...

This book is based on a course given by the author at the university ofLisbon during the academic year 1997–1998. Its aim is to give the readeran idea of how the theory of characteristic classes can be applied to solveindex problems. Starting from the Lefschetz fixed point theorem and itsapplication to the computation of the Euler-Poincaré characteristic of acompact orientab...
متن کاملConjugation Spaces and Equivariant Chern Classes
Let η be a Real bundle, in the sense of Atiyah, over a space X. This is a complex vector bundle together with an involution which is compatible with complex conjugation. We use the fact that BU has a canonical structure of a conjugation space, as defined by Hausmann, Holm, and Puppe, to construct equivariant Chern classes in certain equivariant cohomology groups of X with twisted integer coeffi...
