==Properties of the Todd class== The Todd class is multiplicative: ::<math>\operatorname{td}(E\oplus F) = \operatorname{td}(E)\cdot \operatorname{td}(F).</math> Let <math>\xi \in H^2({\mathbb C} P^n)</math> be the fundamental class of the hyperplane section. From multiplicativity and the Euler exact sequence for the tangent bundle of <math> {\mathbb C} P^n</math> :: <math> 0 \to {\mathcal O} \to {\mathcal O}(1)^{n+1} \to T {\mathbb C} P^n \to 0,</math> one obtains <ref>[http://math.stanford.edu/~vakil/245/245class18.pdf Intersection Theory Class 18], by [[Ravi Vakil]]</ref> :: <math> \operatorname{td}(T {\mathbb C}P^n) = \left( \dfrac{\xi}{1-e^{-\xi}} \right)^{n+1}.</math>
