Summary: Every compact smooth manifold \(M\) is diffeomorphic to a nonsingular real algebraic set, called an algebraic model of \(M\). We study modulo 2 homology classes represented by algebraic subsets of \(X\), as \(X\) runs through the class of all algebraic models of \(M\). Our main result concerns the case where \(M\) is a spin manifold.
