Topological Witt groups and Reality
-
Chuck Weibel , Rutgers University
This is joint work with Karoubi. 听Given an algebraic variety over the real numbers, we compare its Witt groups with the topological Witt groups of the underlying manifold with involution听using Atiyah's Real K-theory, Brumfiel's Theorem and a conjecture of Bruce Williams.听
