A dilogarithmic formula for the Cheeger-Chern-Simons class

Johan Dupont, Christian Zickert

Published 2009-03-02Version 1

We present a simplification of Neumann's formula for the universal Cheeger-Chern-Simons class of the second Chern polynomial. Our approach is completely algebraic, and the final formula can be applied directly on a homology class in the bar complex.
