Lefschetz Theory on Manifolds with Singularities

Source: CiteSeer

ABSTRACT The semiclassical method in Lefschetz theory is presented and applied to the computation of Lefschetz numbers of endomorphisms of elliptic complexes on manifolds with singularities. Two distinct cases are considered, one in which the endomorphism is geometric and the other in which the endomorphism is speci ed by Fourier integral operators associated with a canonical transformation. In the latter case, the problem includes a small parameter and the formulas are (semiclassically) asymptotic. In the rst case, the parameter is introduced arti cially and the semiclassical method gives exact answers. In both cases, the Lefschetz number is the sum of contributions of interior xed points given (in the case of geometric endomorphisms) by standard formulas plus the contribution of xed singular points.
