Noncommutative Geometry
Time: 10:30
Speaker: Asghar Ghorbanpour (Western)
Title: "NCG Learning Seminar: Applications of the Atiyah-Singer Index theorem 4: the Hirzebruch-Riemann-Roch Theorem"
Room: MC 107

Abstract: Following the previous talks on the Atiyah-Singer index theorem by Masoud, we will prove another important special case, namely the Hirzebruch-Riemann-Roch theorem. This theorem gives the holomorphic Euler characteristic of a holomorphic vector bundle over a compact Kähler manifold in terms of the Todd class of the manifold and the Chern character of the vector bundle. It will be shown how in the case of a holomorphic line bundle over a Riemann surface this reduces to the classical Riemann-Roch theorem.
