Abstract
MacPherson’s Chern class transformation on complex algebraic varieties is a certain unique natural transformation from the constructible function covariant functor to the integral homology covariant functor, and it can be extended to a category of provarieties. In this paper, as further extensions of this we consider natural transformations among Mackey functors on provarieties and also on “indvarieties” and discuss some notions and examples related to these extensions.
