 Cohomological obstruction to separately odd sphere multiplication

Suppose a continuous map $g:S^n\times S^n\to S^n$ changes sign on negating either input. Its quotient $\bar{g}:{\mathbb{RP}}^n\times {\mathbb{RP}}^n\to {\mathbb{RP}}^n$ pulls back the real tautological line bundle to the tensor product of vector bundles $p_1^{\ast }{\gamma }_n\otimes p_2^{\ast }{\gamma }_n$. The fiber map sends $(sx)\otimes (ty)$ to $stg(x,y)$. The First Stiefel–Whitney class of a tensor product of real line bundles consequently gives ${\bar{g}}^{\ast }a=a_1+a_2$. The Künneth theorem and the mod-two cohomology ring of real projective space implyEvery interior binomial coefficient in row $n+1$ must be even. By binomial coefficients with even interior terms, $n=2^k-1$ for some $k\ge 0$. This is a necessary condition, not an assertion of existence in every such dimension.
