To this data we associate a super-connection A on the exterior algebra of E, which gives a "twisted resolution" of the structure sheaf of Z. The "generalized super-trace" of A^{2r}/r!, where r is the rank of E, is an explicit map of complexes from the twisted resolution to the Dolbeault complex of X, which represents [Z]. One may then read off the Gauss-Bonnet formula from this map of complexes.21 pages. Paper reorganized to improve exposition.
