Abstract
For a quasi-projective complex variety and a regular function, we construct a Chern character from the Grothendieck group of the category of matrix factorizations of to the critical cohomology of , and show that it factors through a certain topological -theory group. We prove a Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem with respect to this Chern character, and verify several functorial properties.
