The prime mechanism then appeared to be this: Given a space X carrying a vector bundle, that implied in the homotopy category a mapping from X to a classifying space BG, for the relevant linear group G. For the homotopy theory the relevant information is carried by compact subgroups such as the orthogonal groups and unitary groups of G. Once the cohomology H *( BG ) was calculated, once and for all, the contravariance property of cohomology meant that characteristic classes for the bundle would be defined in H *( X ) in the same dimensions.

Given a set S of matrices, each of which is diagonalizable, and any two of which commute, it is always possible to simultaneously diagonalize all of the elements of S. Equivalently, for any set S of mutually commuting semisimple linear transformations of a finite-dimensional vector space V there exists a basis of V consisting of simultaneous eigenvectors of all elements of S. Each of these common eigenvectors v ∈ V, defines a linear functional on the subalgebra U of End ( V ) generated by the set of endomorphisms S ; this functional is defined as the map which associates to each element of U its eigenvalue on the eigenvector v. This " generalized eigenvalue " is a prototype for the notion of a weight.
