Abstract
In this chapter we apply the results of the previous one to the orientability of V-objects with respect to K and KO. The case V = O was considered by Atiyah–Bott–Shapiro [1], the other cases were considered mainly by the author, see Rudyak [6,8,9]. To be convenient, we collect the results as a r´esum´e, see the ends of §§ 3,4. Here K, resp. KO, means complex, resp. real K-theory, see Atiyah [4], Husemoller [1], Karoubi [1], etc.
