On the Stiefel-Whitney classes of the representations associated with Spin(15)

Mamoru Mimura, Tetsu Nishimoto

Published 2009-03-28Version 1

We determine the Stiefel-Whitney classes of the second exterior representation and the spin representation of Spin(15), which are useful to calculate the mod 2 cohomology of the classifying space of the exceptional Lie group E_8.
