Asymptotic Riemann–Roch conjecture for the relative second Chern class
Asymptotic Riemann–Roch conjecture for the relative second Chern class
Assume that the base field has characteristic zero. Let be the morphism under consideration, and let be a rank vector bundle on . Write for the relative Euler characteristic and and for the relative first and second Chern classes. Asymptotic Riemann–Roch conjecture. One expects
This conjecturally characterizes the relative second Chern class in characteristic zero and is needed in arbitrary rank; the rank-two case is attributed in the source to work of Wang, with the arbitrary-rank version suggested by Langer. The source does not provide evidence of a resolution.
