Intersection numbers on bundles and Euler characteristic. (English) Zbl 1056.57016

Summary: We study the intersection numbers of cross sections of bundles on manifolds with boundary. By using the method of extending vector fields on doubled manifolds, we obtain an expression of the Euler characteristic in terms of intersection numbers.
