Characteristic classes of bundles of K3 manifolds and the Nielsen realization problem

Jeffrey Giansiracusa, Alexander Kupers and Bena Tshishiku

Vol. 3 (2021), No. 1, 75–92
Abstract

Let K be the K3 manifold. In this note, we discuss two methods to prove that certain generalized Miller–Morita–Mumford classes for smooth bundles with fiber K are nonzero. As a consequence, we fill a gap in a paper of the first author, and prove that the homomorphism Diff(K) π0 Diff(K) does not split. One of the two methods of proof uses a result of Franke on the stable cohomology of arithmetic groups that strengthens work of Borel, and may be of independent interest.
