Abstract

We announce Hodge theoretic formulae of Atiyah-Meyer type for genera and characteristic classes of complex algebraic varieties. Our results are formulated in terms of the generalized (motivic) Hirzebruch characteristic classes, and the arguments used in the proofs rely in an essential way on Saito's theory of algebraic mixed Hodge modules.
