Finitude homotopique et isotopique des structures de contact tendues

Vincent Colin, Emmanuel Giroux, Ko Honda (2009)

Publications Mathématiques de l'IHÉS

Soit V une variété close de dimension 3. Dans cet article, on montre que les classes dhomotopie de champs de plans sur V qui contiennent des structures de contact tendues sont en nombre fini et que, si V est atoroïdale, les classes disotopie des structures de contact tendues sur V sont elles aussi en nombre fini.

Fixed point theory and the K-theoretic trace

Ross Geoghegan, Andrew Nicas (1999)

Banach Center Publications

The relationship between fixed point theory and K-theory is explained, both classical Nielsen theory (versus K 0 ) and 1-parameter fixed point theory (versus K 1 ). In particular, various zeta functions associated with suspension flows are shown to come in a natural way as “traces” of “torsions” of Whitehead and Reidemeister type.

Fixed points of discrete nilpotent group actions on S 2

Suely Druck, Fuquan Fang, Sebastião Firmo (2002)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We prove that for each integer k 2 there is an open neighborhood 𝒱 k of the identity map of the 2-sphere S 2 , in C 1 topology such that: if G is a nilpotent subgroup of Diff 1 ( S 2 ) with length k of nilpotency, generated by elements in 𝒱 k , then the natural G -action on S 2 has nonempty fixed point set. Moreover, the G -action has at least two fixed points if the action has a finite nontrivial orbit.
