In the setting of Definition 2, it suffices to check the condition at one point x in each connected component of X. Our next goal is to show that if E is a complex-oriented cohomology theory, the ...

Hyperfunction Geometry

It was motivated by work of Hawking on Euclidean Quantum Gravity and of Penrose on Twistor Quantization. Hawking considers complex 4-manifolds. To begin with, they admit Lorentzian sections. But he goes on to ...
