THE LEAST NUMBER OF COINCIDENCES WITH A COVERING MAP OF A POLYHEDRON

  • Published : 1999.09.01

Abstract

We define the coincidence index of pairs of maps p, f : $\widetilde{X}$ $\rightarrow$ X where p is a covering of a polyhedron X. We use a polyhedral transversality Theorem due to T. Plavchak. When p=identity we get the classical fixed point index of self map of polyhedra without using homology.
