COMPUTING TWISTED SIGNATURES AND L-CLASSES OF NON-WITT SPACES
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 February 2006
Abstract
In previous joint work with Cappell and Shaneson, we have established an Atiyah–Lusztig–Meyer-type multiplicative characteristic class formula for the twisted signature and, more generally, the twisted $L$-class, of a stratified Witt space. The present paper shows that these formulae hold even when the stratified space does not satisfy the Witt condition. It constitutes one of the first applications of signature homology.
