Higher Euler characteristics (1509.05089v1)
Published 17 Sep 2015 in math.KT and math.AG
Abstract: We provide a natural interpretation of the secondary Euler characteristic and introduce higher Euler characteristics. For a compact oriented manifold of odd dimension, the secondary Euler characteristic recovers the Kervaire semi-characteristic. We prove basic properties of the higher invariants and illustrate their use. We also introduce motivic variants.
