Riemann-Roch Theorems for Oriented Cohomology

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: NATO Science Series ((NAII,volume 131))

Abstract

The notion of an oriented cohomology pretheory on algebraic varieties is introduced and a Riemann-Roch theorem for ring morphisms between oriented pretheories is proved. An explicit formula for the Todd genus related to a ring morphism is given. The theory is illustrated by classical and other examples.
