Abstract

Let M 2n be a compact, oriented, differentiable manifold and U ⊂ M an oriented, differentiable submanifold of codimension two. Let u ∈ H 2(M; ℤ) be the Poincarédual cohomology class of the fundamental cycle of U. Further, let TU and TM be the tangent bundles of U, resp. M,and let NU be the normal bundle of U in M. By choosing a Riemannian metric we get an isomorphism TU ⊕ NU ≉ TM| U and NU gets the structure of an O(2)-bundle. Since M and U are oriented, the structure group of NU can be further reduced to SO(2) ≅ U(1).KeywordsPower SeriesModular FormCohomology ClassNormal BundleElliptic GenusThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
