ESTIMATIONS OF THE GENERALIZED REIDEMEISTER NUMBERS

Let ${\sigma}(X,x_0,G)$ be the fundamental group of a transformation group (X,G). Let $R({\varphi},{\psi})$) be the generalized Reidemeister number for an endomorphism $({\varphi},{\psi}):(X,G){\rightarrow}(X,G)$. In this paper, our main results are as follows ; we prove some sufficient conditions for $R({\varphi},{\psi})$ to be the cardinality of $Coker(1-({\varphi},{\psi})_{\bar{\sigma}})$, where 1 is the identity isomorphism and $({\varphi},{\psi})_{\bar{\sigma}}$ is the endomorphism of ${\bar{\sigma}}(X,x_0,G)$, the quotient group of ${\sigma}(X,x_0,G)$ by the commutator subgroup $C({\sigma}(X,x_0,G))$, induced by (${\varphi},{\psi}$). In particular, we prove $R({\varphi},{\psi})={\mid}Coker(1-({\varphi},{\psi})_{\bar{\sigma}}){\mid}$, provided that (${\varphi},{\psi}$) is eventually commutative.
