This paper strengthens a theorem due to A. Dold on the algebraic properties of sequences of integers which are Lefschetz numbers of the iterates of a continuous map from a finite polyhedron to itself. The realizability of sequences satisfying Dold's condition at a single fixed point of a continuous map on R3 is proved. Indices of a fixed point (under iteration) are investigated in the case of a smooth mapping. A linear lower bound on the number of periodic points of a smooth map, which strengthens a result of Shub and Sullivan, is obtained. |
