Diagonal class of complex projective space
ID: diagonal-class-of-complex-projective-space
Give Complex projective space its complex orientation. In the homology cross product basis of , the diagonal has the displayed class. If are the two normalized degree-two hyperplane classes, its Poincare dual is . Indeed every degree- monomial restricts on the diagonal to the top power of the hyperplane class, whose evaluation on the fundamental class is one. These evaluations determine all coefficients.
