Its Euler characteristic is 0, by the product property. More generally, any compact parallelizable manifold, including any compact Lie group, has Euler characteristic 0. [13] The Euler characteristic of any closed odd-dimensional manifold is also 0. [14] The case for orientable examples is a corollary of Poincaré duality.
Thus the Euler class is a generalization of the Euler characteristic to vector bundles other than tangent bundles. In turn, the Euler class is the archetype for other characteristic classes of vector bundles, in that each "top" characteristic class equals the Euler class, as follows. Modding out by 2 induces a map
This isomorphism is realized by the Euler class; equivalently, it is the first Chern class of a smooth complex line bundle (essentially because a circle is homotopically equivalent to , the complex plane with the origin removed; and so a complex line bundle with the zero section removed is homotopically equivalent to a circle bundle.)
In calculating the Euler characteristic of S′ we notice the loss of e P − 1 copies of P above π(P) (that is, in the inverse image of π(P)). Now let us choose triangulations of S and S′ with vertices at the branch and ramification points, respectively, and use these to compute the Euler characteristics.
The non-orientable genus, demigenus, or Euler genus of a connected, non-orientable closed surface is a positive integer representing the number of cross-caps attached to a sphere. Alternatively, it can be defined for a closed surface in terms of the Euler characteristic χ, via the relationship χ = 2 − k , where k is the non-orientable genus.
Homology theory can be said to start with the Euler polyhedron formula, or Euler characteristic. [16] This was followed by Riemann 's definition of genus and n -fold connectedness numerical invariants in 1857 and Betti 's proof in 1871 of the independence of "homology numbers" from the choice of basis.
Charge is the fundamental property of matter that exhibits electrostatic attraction or repulsion in the presence of other matter with charge. Electric charge is a characteristic property of many subatomic particles. The charges of free-standing particles are integer multiples of the elementary charge e; we say that electric charge is quantized.
In practice, it depends on the capability of the charger. The battery capacity C is expressed in Ah units, typically the C 20 value based on a 20-hour discharge time. [3] The charging current (in A units) can be written as C/t where t is a time. For example, for a battery with C = 40 Ah, a current C/10 is equal to 4 A. The charging current is a ...
