A homological selection theorem implying a division theorem for Q-manifolds

Taras Banakh, Robert Cauty (2007)

Banach Center Publications

We prove that a space M with Disjoint Disk Property is a Q-manifold if and only if M × X is a Q-manifold for some C-space X. This implies that the product M × I² of a space M with the disk is a Q-manifold if and only if M × X is a Q-manifold for some C-space X. The proof of these theorems exploits the homological characterization of Q-manifolds due to Daverman and Walsh, combined with the existence of G-stable points in C-spaces. To establish the existence of such points we prove (and afterward...

A Lefschetz-type coincidence theorem

Peter Saveliev (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

A Lefschetz-type coincidence theorem for two maps f,g: X → Y from an arbitrary topological space to a manifold is given: I f g = λ f g , that is, the coincidence index is equal to the Lefschetz number. It follows that if λ f g 0 then there is an x ∈ X such that f(x) = g(x). In particular, the theorem contains well-known coincidence results for (i) X,Y manifolds, f boundary-preserving, and (ii) Y Euclidean, f with acyclic fibres. It also implies certain fixed point results for multivalued maps with “point-like” (acyclic)...
