Calculation of the top Chern class of spinor bundle over $S^{2n}$
It's well known that for a complex vector bundle $E$, we have
$$c_n(E)=e_n(E_\mathbb{R}) $$
But I'm very curious about the relationship between the top Chern class of spinor bundle and the Euler class ...

Existence of a local spinor bundle
I am confused about the existence of a local spinor bundle.
My question is that if a Riemannian manifold $M$ is not spin, why does there exist a local spinor bundle over all sufficiently small open ...
