摘要
A mod 2 index theorem for the twisted Signature operator on 4 q + 1 dimensional manifolds is established. This result generalizes a result of Farber and Turaev, which was proved for the case of orthogonal flat bundles, to arbitrary real vector bundles. It also provides an analytic interpretation of the sign of the Poincare-Reidemeister scalar product defined by Farber and Turaev.
