Abstract

Let K be a cohomology theory. Axioms are given which uniquely characterize the transfer in K-cohomology for bundles with structure group a compact Lie group and fibre a finite C.W. complex. Also, a family of generalized transfers is defined which includes both the standard transfer and Atiyah's holomorphic transfer.
