Abstract

In 1970 Vasquez proved that to every finite group GG we can assign a natural number n(G)n(G) with the property that every flat manifold with holonomy GG is a total space of a fiber bundle, with the fiber being a flat torus and the base space -- a flat manifold of dimension less than or equal to n(G)n(G). In particular, this means that the characteristic algebra of any flat manifold with holonomy GG vanishes in dimension greater than n(G)n(G). We define a complex analog of Vasquez invariant, in which finite groups are considered as holonomy groups of compact flat K\"ahler manifolds.
