The purpose of this note is to prove the converse of the Lefschetz fixed point theorem (CLT) together with an equivariant version of the converse of the Lefschetz deformation theorem (CDT) in the category of finite G-simplicial complexes, where G is a finite group.
We present a generalization of the classical Conley index defined for flows on locally compact spaces to flows on an infinite-dimensional real Hilbert space H generated by vector fields of the form f: H → H, f(x) = Lx + K(x), where L: H → H is a bounded linear operator satisfying some technical assumptions and K is a completely continuous perturbation. Simple examples are presented to show how this new invariant can be applied in searching critical points of strongly indefinite functionals having...
