Query: M-theory and Characteristic Classes   In this note we show that the Chern-Simons and the one-loop terms in the
M-theory action can be written in terms of new characters involving the
M-theory four-form and the string classes. This sheds a new light on the
topological structure behind M-theory and suggests the construction of a theory
of `higher' characteristic classes.
