Abstract

In this paper we prove a categorification of the Grothendieck–Riemann–Roch theorem. Our result implies in particular a Grothendieck–Riemann–Roch theorem for Toën and Vezzosi's secondary Chern character. As a main application, we establish a comparison between the Toën–Vezzosi Chern character and the classical Chern character, and show that the categorified Chern character recovers the classical de Rham realization.
