Abstract: | We evaluate the cohomology obstructions to the existence of fiber-preserving unital embedding of a locally trivial bundle A k → X whose fiber is a complex matrix algebra M k (?) in a trivial bundle with fiber M kl (?) under the assumption that (k, l) = 1. It is proved that the first obstruction coincides with the obstruction to the reduction of the structure group PGL k (?) of the bundle A k to SL k (?), which coincides with the first Chern class c 1(ξ k ) reduced modulo k under the assumption that A k ≌ End(ξ k ) for some vector ? k -bundle ξ k → X. If the first obstruction vanishes, then A k ≌ End( $\tilde \xi _k $ ) for some vector ? k bundle ξ k → X with structure group SL k (?), and the second obstruction is c 2( $\tilde \xi _k $ )modk ∈ H 4(X, ?/k?). Further, the higher obstructions are defined using a Postnikov tower, and each of the obstructions is defined on the kernel of the previous obstruction. |
