On trivialities of Stiefel-Whitney classes of vector bundles over iterated suspensions of Dold manifolds

Ajay Singh Thakur

Published 2012-09-11Version 1

A space $X$ is called $W$-trivial if for every vector bundle $\xi$ over $X$, the total Stiefel-Whitney class $W(\xi)= 1$. In this article we shall investigate whether the suspensions of Dold manifolds, $\s^k D(m,n)$, is $W$-trivial or not.
