About the Chern class of infinite complex Grassmannian
$begingroup$
I learned that any characteristic class of rank-$k$ complex vector bundles on paracompact spaces is determined bijectively by a cohomology class in $H^*(Gr_k^infty(mathbb C))$, the cohomology ring of k-th infinite Grassmannian.
So the $n$-th Chern classes should be able to defined just by an element of $H^{2n}(Gr_k^infty(mathbb C))$, which is a linear combination of certain Schubert cycles (or Young diagrams, equivalently). Is there a direct combinatorial way to define what the Chern classes are?
