In 1942 LEV PONTRJAGIN of Moscow University began to study thehomology of Grassmann manifolds, using a cell subdivision due to CharlesEhresmann. This enabled him to construct important new characteristicclasses. (Pontrjagins many contributions to mathematics are the moreremarkable in that he is totally blind, having lost his eyesight in an acci-dent at the age of fourteen.)
內容簡介
The text which follows is based mostly on lectures at PrincetonUniversity in 1957. The senior author wishes to apologize for the delayin publication.The theory of characteristic classes began in the year 1935 with almostsimultaneous work by HASSLER WHITNEY in the United States andEDUARD STIEFEL in Switzerland. StiefeIs thesis, written under thedirection of Heinz Hopf, introduced and studied certain "characteristic"homology classes determined by the tangent bundle of a smooth manifold.Whitney, then at Harvard University, treated the case of an arbitrary spherebundle. Somewhat later he invented the language of cohomology theory,hence the concept of a characteristic cohomology class, and proved thebasic product theorem.

還沒看過不發錶內容的評論瞭,評論一下彆的:紙張光滑,比世圖齣版的彆的書要好很多,封麵與圖示不符,為白色紅邊,不過依然很漂亮,裏麵印刷不錯。
