| Abstract: | The formula for the Hirzebruch χy-genus of complex manifolds is a consequence of the Hirzebruch–Riemann–Roch formula. The classical index formulae for Todd genus, Euler number and signature correspond to the case when the complex variable y = 0,−1 and 1 respectively. Here we give a direct derivation of this nice formula based on supersymmetric quantum mechanics. |
