Description
Summary:Closed Legendrian (d - 1)-dimensional locally rectifiable currents on the sphere bundle in [Equation](d) are considered and the associated index functions are studied. A topological condition assuring the validity of a local version of the Gauss-Bonnet formula is established. The case of lower-dimensional Lipschitz submanifolds in [Equation](d) and their associated normal cycles is examined in detail.
