Seminar on the Atiyah-Singer index theorem /

This book consists mainly of slightly revised notes of a seminar held at the Institute for Advanced Study in 1963-64 upon the initiative of A. Borel. Aside from going through the details of the proof of the Index Theorem, the major emphasis of the seminar was placed on developing the topological and...
