\(KO\)-theory of flag manifolds (Q1766220)

The present paper investigates the real \(K\)-theory of flag manifolds which are the homogeneous spaces \(G(n)/T\) for \(G=U\), \(Sp\), \(SO\) and \(T\) the maximal torus of \(G(n)\). First the authors determine the \(s_q^2\)-cohomology of flag manifolds and after that, using the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence, they obtain detailed formulas for the \(KO^*\)-groups of \(G(n)/T\) (see Table 1, p. 225).
