Abstract

Let M be a closed 1-connected smooth 4-manifolds, and let r be a non-negative integer. We study the problem of finding minimal number of r-periodic points in the smooth homotopy class of a given map f:M→M\\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \\usepackage{amsmath} \\usepackage{wasysym} \\usepackage{amsfonts} \\usepackage{amssymb} \\usepackage{amsbsy} \\usepackage{mathrsfs} \\usepackage{upgreek} \\setlength{\\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \\begin{document}$$f:M \\rightarrow M$$\\end{document}.

Previously, the invariant was computed for self-maps of some 3-manifolds. In this paper, we compute the invariants Dr4[f]\\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \\usepackage{amsmath} \\usepackage{wasysym} \\usepackage{amsfonts} \\usepackage{amssymb} \\usepackage{amsbsy} \\usepackage{mathrsfs} \\usepackage{upgreek} \\setlength{\\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \\begin{document}$$D^4_r[f]$$\\end{document} for the self-maps of closed 1-connected smooth 4-manifolds with definite intersection forms (i.e., connected sums of complex projective planes). We also present some efficient algorithmic approach to investigate that problem
