报告摘要：The Poincare duality, named after Henri Poincare, is a basic result on the structure of the homology and cohomology groups of manifolds.

A form of Poincare duality was first stated, without proof, by Henri Poincare in 1893. It was stated in terms of Betti numbers: the k-th and (n - k)-th Betti numbers of a closed (i.e. compact and without boundary) orientable n-manifold are equal.

H.Poincare has not presented neither accurate concept of the Betti numbers nor strict reasoning the validity of the Poincare duality. This required the creation of new concepts in works by E.Noether (1926), J. Alexander and A.N.Kolmogorov (1935) and many other mathematicians where the homology and cohomology groups  have been defined.

The modern statement of the Poincare duality says that if M is a closed oriented $n$-manifold, and k is an integer, then there is a canonically defined isomorphism from the k-th cohomology group H^k(M) to the (n - k)-th homology group H_{n - k}(M).

In the case of even dimensional manifold, say n=2k, the Poincare duality leads to an isomorphism H^k(M)/cong H_k(M) and to recovering a hidden invariants of the manifolds, namely the signature of the manifold, that turns out to be invariant with respect to orientable bordisms. Therefore the signature can be expressed in the terms of some characteristic classes by the Hirzebruch formula.

The theory of characteristic classes led to broad development of the differential topology, in particular to classification of smooth and combinatorial structures on manifolds, theory of non simply connected manifolds, noncommutative geometry and with their help to solve the major problems in topology.
