Cohomology of Lie (super)algebras (17B56) Characteristic classes and numbers in differential topology (57R20)

Abstract: We introduce a notion of secondary characteristic classes of Lie algebra extensions. As a spin-off of our construction we obtain a new proof of Lecomte's generalization of the Chern-Weil homomorphism.
