## Abstract

In this paper, we study some algebraic topology aspects of String$^c$ structures, more precisely, from the perspective of Whitehead tower and the perspective of the loop group of $Spin^c(n)$. We also extend the generalized Witten genera constructed for the first time in \cite{CHZ11} to correspond to String$^c$ structures of various levels and give vanishing results for them.
