Lefschetz fixed-point theorem

In mathematics, the Lefschetz fixed-point theorem is a formula that counts the fixed points of a continuous mapping from a compact topological space to itself by means of traces of the induced mappings on the homology groups of . It is named after Solomon Lefschetz, who first stated it in 1926. The counting is subject to an imputed multiplicity at a fixed point called the fixed-point index. A weak version of the theorem is enough to show that a mapping without any fixed point must have rather special topological properties (like a rotation of a circle). (Wikipedia).

Lefschetz Fixed Point Theorem example

Here we give an example of how to use the Lefschetz fixed point theorem. These notes were really useful as a graduate student, some of them are down now, but I think these notes I had came from here: http://mathsci.kaist.ac.kr/~jinhyun/useful.html

A beautiful combinatorical proof of the Brouwer Fixed Point Theorem - Via Sperner's Lemma

Using a simple combinatorical argument, we can prove an important theorem in topology without any sophisticated machinery. Brouwer's Fixed Point Theorem: Every continuous mapping f(p) from between closed balls of the same dimension have a fixed point where f(p)=p. Sperner's Lemma: Ever

Proof of Lemma and Lagrange's Theorem

Please Subscribe here, thank you!!! https://goo.gl/JQ8Nys Proof of Lemma and Lagrange's Theorem. This video starts by proving that any two right cosets have the same cardinality. Then we prove Lagrange's Theorem which says that if H is a subgroup of a finite group G then the order of H div

Weil conjectures 5: Lefschetz trace formula

This talk explains the relation between the Lefschetz fixed point formula and the Weil conjectures. More precisely, the zeta function of a variety of a finite field can be written in terms of an action of the Frobenius group on the cohomology groups of the variety. The main problem is then

Fixed and Periodic Points | Nathan Dalaklis

Fixed Points and Periodic points are two mathematical objects that come up all over the place in Dynamical systems, Differential equations, and surprisingly in Topology as well. In these videos, I introduce the concepts of fixed points and periodic points and gradually build to a proof of

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 5.4: Fixed points and Cauchy's theorem

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 5.4: Fixed points and Cauchy's theorem We begin with a small lemma stating that if a group of prime order acts on a set S, then the number of fixed points is congruent to the size of the set, modulo p. We need this result to prove Cauchy's theorem, which says
