Subject: char classes via transition functions From: jim stasheff Date: Sun, 15 Apr 2007 13:06:34 -0400 In his thesis, Shulman gave an explicit formula for the Pontr. classes in terms of transition functions. Nakahara gives this for the 1st and 2nd S-W classes also. I wondered if all the SW classes could be given this way. Maybe someone has already done it. jim
