Spin structures and divisibility of cohomology classes

I think your last sentence/question is not well posed. It is well known that there are flat manifolds admitting plenty of non-flat vector bundles. E.g. see J. Smillie, "Flat manifolds with non-zero Eu …

Lorentzian metrics on the torus up to continuos deformations

Yes those are already all different metrics. Since the tangent bundle of the 2-torus $\mathbb{T}^2$ is trivial you have a correspondence between the set of homotopy classes of maps $\mathbb{T}^2\to\ma …
