In mathematics, the Segre class is a characteristic class used in the study of singular vector bundles. The total Segre class is inverse to the total Chern class, and thus provides equivalent information; the advantage of the Segre class is that it generalizes to singular vector bundles, while the Chern class does not. The Segre class is named after Beniamino Segre. == Definition == For a holomorphic vector bundle over a complex manifold a total Segre class is the inverse to the total Chern class , see e.g.〔Fulton W. (1998). ''Intersection theory'', p.50. Springer, 1998.〕 Explicitly, for a total Chern class : one gets the total Segre class : where : Let be Chern roots, i.e. formal eigenvalues of where is a curvature of a connection on . While the Chern class s(E) is written as : where is an elementary symmetric polynomial of degree in variables the Segre for the dual bundle which has Chern roots is written as : Expanding the above expression in powers of one can see that is represented by a complete homogeneous symmetric polynomial of 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Segre class」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
