- Although important an piece of differential topology, I find it hard to justify High importance (at least comparing to other maths articles). In my mind Chern classes qualify for High, and a link should be provided there to this article.
- Needs: more context

[edit] References?
I can't seem to locate a good reference for this theorem. The Narasimhan and Ramanan paper cites some lecture notes by Chern, but these notes are unavailable to me. I have an unsettling feeling that there may be no definitive reference, but that it is one of those theorems of mathematical folklore -- passed from teacher to student by word of mouth.
