The classification and lattice model construction of symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases in interacting fermion systems are very interesting but challenging. In this paper, we give a systematic fixed-point wave function construction of fermionic SPT (FSPT) states for generic fermionic symmetry group G_f = \mathbb{Z}^f_2 ×_{ω_2} G_b which is a central extension of bosonic symmetry group Gb (may contain time-reversal symmetry) by the fermion parity symmetry group \mathbb{Z}^f_2 = {1,P_f}. Our construction is based on the concept of an equivalence class of finite-depth fermionic symmetric local unitary transformations and decorating symmetry domain wall picture, subjected to certain obstructions. We also discuss the systematical construction and classification of boundary anomalous SPT states which leads to a trivialization of the corresponding bulk FSPT states. Thus, we conjecture that the obstruction-free and trivialization-free constructions naturally lead to a classification of FSPT phases. Each fixed-point wave function admits an exactly solvable commuting-projector Hamiltonian. We believe that our classification scheme can be generalized to point and space group symmetry as well as continuum Lie group symmetry.

A CY bundle on a compact complex manifold X was a crucial ingredient in constructing differential systems for period integrals in \cite{LY}, by lifting line bundles from the base X to the total space. A question was therefore raised as to whether there exists such a bundle that supports the liftings of all line bundles from X , simultaneously. This was a key step for giving a uniform construction of differential systems for arbitrary complete intersections in X . In this paper, we answer the existence question in the affirmative if X is assumed to be K\"ahler, and also in general if the Picard group of X is assumed to be free. Furthermore, we prove a rigidity property of CY bundles if the principal group is an algebraic torus, showing that such a CY bundle is essentially determined by its character map.
