Streszczenie

The projective Stiefel manifold $X_{n,k}$ has a canonical line bundle $ξ_{n,k}$, called the Hopf bundle. The order of $cξ_{n,k}$, the complexification of $ξ_{n,k}$, as an element of (the abelian group) $K(X_{n,k})$, has been determined in [3], [5], [6]. The main result in the present work is that this order equals the order of $ξ_{n,k}$ itself, as an element of $KO(X_{n,k})$, for $n ≡ 0,± 1 (mod 8), or for k in the "upper range for n" (approximately $k ≥ n/2$). Certain applications are indicated.
