May 29, 2010 at 19:40 comment added Tyler Lawson Much like divergent series, there is more than one extension of the Euler characteristic to spaces other than finite CW-complexes. E.g. there is the rational-cohomology Euler characteristic or the Morava K-theory Euler characteristic K(n), which assign 1 and p^n to the classifying space of a cyclic group of order p respectively, or one can apply divergent series techniques to form the alternating sum of dimensions.
