Rokhlin's theorem

Samuel Adrian Antz
synthetic differential geometry Introductions geometry of physics: coordinate systems, smooth spaces, manifolds, smooth homotopy types, supergeometry Differentials Tangency The magic algebraic facts Theorems Axiomatics Models smooth algebra (-ring) differential equations, variational calculus Chern-Weil theory, ∞-Chern-Weil theory Cartan geometry (super, higher) Rokhlin’s theorem states that the signature of a smooth orientable closed spin 4-manifold is divisible by . It therefore serves as an..
