Let \(F\) be either the reals, complexes or quaternions. If \(X\) is a real algebraic variety we let \(K_{F-\text{alg}}(X)\) denote the Grothendieck group of strongly algebraic \(F\) vector bundles over \(X\). We also let \(V^ 1_{C-\text{alg}}(X)\) denote the group of strongly algebraic complex line bundles over \(X\). This paper shows that if \(X\) is nonsingular and \(Y\subset X\) is a generic hypersurface (in some sense), then the restriction maps \(V^ 1_{C-\text{alg}}(X)\to V^ 1_{C- \text{alg}}(Y)\) and \(K_{F-\text{alg}}(X)\otimes \mathbb{Q}\to K_{F- \text{alg}}(Y)\otimes \mathbb{Q}\) are surjective. As an application, if \(X\) has dimension \(2k+1\) with \(k\geq 2\) and \(Y\) is null homologous, then for generic \(Y\) every regular map from \(Y\) to the sphere \(S^{2k}\) is null homotopic. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0779.32004].
