Hirzebruch formula conjecture for signatures of quotient spaces
Hirzebruch formula conjecture for signatures of quotient spaces
Let be a manifold with a proper action of a discrete group , and let be its quotient. Write for the Hirzebruch -class of , and let denote the rational fundamental class of the quotient. The signature is
Hirzebruch formula conjecture. The signature satisfies
The quotient satisfies Poincare duality in homology with rational coefficients, so its signature is defined. The conjecture proposes an analogue of the Hirzebruch signature formula for quotients by proper group actions.
