The main results concern with the self maps on the Klein bottle. We obtain the Reidemeister numbers and the Nielsen numbers for all self maps on the Klein bottle. In terms of the Nielsen numbers of their iterates, we totally determine the minimal sets of periods for all homotopy classes of self maps on the Klein bottle.

We construct some infinite series of free and nearly free curves using pencils of conics with a base locus of cardinality at most two. These curves have an interesting topology, e.g. a high degree Alexander polynomial that can be explicitly determined, a Milnor fiber homotopy equivalent to a bouquet of circles, or an irreducible translated component in the characteristic variety of their complement. Monodromy eigenspaces in the first cohomology group of the corresponding Milnor fibers are also described in terms of explicit differential forms.

Several authors investigated the properties which are invariant under the passage from a group to its nonabelian tensor square. In the present note we study this problem from the viewpoint of the classes of groups and the methods allow us to prove a result of invariance for some geometric properties of discrete groups.

Let $G = Z_2$. Let X be any compact connected orientable nonsingular real algebraic variety of dim X = k = odd with the trivial G action, and let Y be the unit sphere $S^{2n-k}$ with the antipodal action of G. Then we prove that any G invariant entire rational map $f : x \times Y \to S^{2n}$ is G homotopically trivial. We apply this result to prove that any entire rational map $g : X \times RP^{2n-k} \to S^{2n}$ is homotopically trivial.

M. Kontsevich posed a problem on mapping class groups of 3-manifold that is if M is a compact 3-manifold with nonempty boundary, then BDiff (M rel $\partial$ M) has the homotopy type of a finite complex. Here, Diff (M rel $\partial$ M) is the group of diffeomorphisms of M which restrict to the identity on $\partial$ M, and BDiff (M rel $\partial$ M) is its classifying space. In this paper we resolve the problem affirmatively in the case when M is a Haken 3-manifold.

We show that for any graph G, the proper part of the intersection poset of the corresponding graphical arrangement $\mathcal{A}_G$ has the homotopy type of a wedge of spheres. Furthermore, we also indicate the number of spheres in the wedge, based on the number of spanning forests of G and other graphs that are obtained from G.

Sufficient conditions are given to assert that between any two Banach spaces over $\mathbb{K}$ Fredholm mappings share exactly N values in a specific open ball. The proof of the result is constructive and is based upon continuation methods.

Let N be a Closed n-manifold with residually finite, torsion free $\pi$$_1$(N) and finite H$_1$,(N). Suppose that $\pi$$\_$k/(N)=0 for 1 < k < n-1. We show that N is a codimension-n PL fibrator if and only if N does not cover itself regularly and cyclically up to homotopy type, provided $\pi$$_1$(N) satisfies a certain condition.

Nielsen coincidence theory is concerned with the estimation of a lower bound for the number of coincidences of two maps $f,g: X \longrightarrow Y$. For this purpose the so-called Nielsen number N(f,g) is introduced, which is a lower bound for the number of coincidences ([1]). The relative Nielsen number N(f : X,A) in the fixed point theory is introduced in [3], which is a lower bound for the number of fixed points for all maps in the relative homotopy class of f:(X,A) $\longrightarrow$ (X,A), and its estimation is given in [5].

This paper is devoted to the parallelism of a numerical matrix eigenvalue problem. The eigenproblem arises in a variety of applications, including engineering, statistics, and economics. Especially we try to approach the industrial techniques from mathematical modeling. This paper has developed a parallel algorithm to find all eigenvalues. It is contributed to solve a specific practical problem, a vibration problem in the industry. Also we compare the runtime between the serial algorithm and the parallel algorithm for the given problems.
