FIXED POINTS THEORY ON CLOSED 3-DIMENSIONAL MANIFOLDS

  • Published : 2000.10.01

Abstract

Let f : M longrightarrow M be a homotopically periodic self-map of a closed surface M. Except for M = $S^2$, the Nielsen number N(f) and the Lefschetz number L(f) of the self-map f are the same. This is a generalization of Kwasik and Lee's result to 2-dimensional case. On the 2-sphere $S^2$, N(f) = 1 and L(f) = deg(f) + 1 for any self-map f : $S^2$longrightarrow$S^2$.
