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.
