The Euler-Poincaré-Hopf theorem for flat connections in some transitive Lie algebroids
This paper is a continuation of [19], [21], [22]. We study flat connections with isolated singularities in some transitive Lie algebroids for which either or or are isotropy Lie algebras. Under the assumption that the dimension of the isotropy Lie algebra is equal to , where is the dimension of the base manifold, we assign to any such isolated singularity a real number called an index. For -Lie algebroids, this index cannot be an integer. We prove the index theorem (the Euler-Poincaré-Hopf...
