Calculations of the Hirzebruch $χ_y$ genera of symmetric products by the holomorphic Lefschetz formula
Abstract
Description
We calculate the Hirzebruch $χ_y$ and $\hatχ_y$-genera of symmetric products of closed complex manifolds by the holomorphic Lefschetz formula of Atiyah and Singer \cite{Ati-Sin}. Such calculation rederive some formulas proved in an earlier paper \cite{Zho} by a different method.
