Generalised Miller-Morita-Mumford classes for block bundles and topological bundles
The Miller-Morita-Mumford (briefly MMM) characteristic classes were originally studied for smooth fibre bundles with fibre a closed connected oriented surface; later on, they were generalised and studied [\textit{J. Ebert}, Algebr. Geom. Topol. 11, No. 1, 69--105 (2011; Zbl 1210.55012)] for fibre bundles with fibre a smooth closed manifold of arbitrary dimension. The authors of the paper under review also define the generalised MMM-classes for oriented smooth block bundles and for oriented topological fibre bundles, with fibre a closed manifold \(M\). They achieve their aim by proving the existence of universal MMM-classes in the cohomology of the corresponding classifying spaces, that is, in \(H^\ast(B\widetilde{\text{Diff}}(M);\mathbb F)\) in case of block bundles, if \(\mathbb F\) is any field, and in \(H^\ast(B\text{Homeo}^ +(M);\mathbb F)\) in case of topological bundles, if \(\mathbb F\) is a field of characteristic zero or two.
