One wonders or not whether it is possible to determine the homotopy class of a vector field by examining some algebraic invariants associated with its qualitative behavior. In this paper, we investigate the algebraic invariants which are usually associated with the periodic solutions of non-singular Morse-Smale vector fields on the 3-sphere. We exhibit some examples for which there appears to be no correlation between the algebraic invariants of the periodic solutions and the homotopy...
