In mathematics, the fixed-point index is a concept in topological fixed-point theory, and in particular Nielsen theory. The fixed-point index can be thought of as a multiplicity measurement for fixed points. The index can be easily defined in the setting of complex analysis: Let ''f''(''z'') be a holomorphic mapping on the complex plane, and let ''z''0 be a fixed point of ''f''. Then the function ''f''(''z'') − ''z'' is holomorphic, and has an isolated zero at ''z''0. We define the fixed point index of ''f'' at ''z''0, denoted ''i''(''f'', ''z''0), to be the multiplicity of the zero of the function ''f''(''z'') − ''z'' at the point ''z''0. In real Euclidean space, the fixed-point index is defined as follows: If ''x''0 is an isolated fixed point of ''f'', then let ''g'' be the function defined by : Then ''g'' has an isolated singularity at ''x''0, and maps the boundary of some deleted neighborhood of ''x''0 to the unit sphere. We define ''i''(''f'', ''x''0) to be the Brouwer degree of the mapping induced by ''g'' on some suitably chosen small sphere around ''x''0.〔A. Katok and B. Hasselblatt(1995), Introduction to the modern theory of dynamical systems, Cambridge University Press, Chapter 8.〕 ==The Lefschetz–Hopf theorem== The importance of the fixed-point index is largely due to its role in the Lefschetz–Hopf theorem, which states: : where Fix(''f'') is the set of fixed points of ''f'', and ''Λ''''f'' is the Lefschetz number of ''f''. Since the quantity on the left-hand side of the above is clearly zero when ''f'' has no fixed points, the Lefschetz–Hopf theorem trivially implies the Lefschetz fixed point theorem. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fixed-point index」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
