Abstract

Before the appearance of the paper An ideal-valued cohomological index theory with applications to Borsuk-Ulam and Bourgin-Yang theorems\"of Fadell and Husseini [20], had been considered numerical indices of G-spaces, when G = \'Z IND. 2\' and when G is a finite group. However, such numerical indices are obviously insufficient in the case of groups more complexes, for example, G =\'S POT 1\'. In this context Fadell andHusseini, introduced the called valued-ideal cohomological index: to every paracompact G-space X they associated an ideal \'Ind POT. G\' (X,K) of the cohomology ring H*(BG;K), where the Cech cohomology H* is considered with coefficients in a field K and BG is the classifying space of the group G. Moreover, they associated to this ideal the numerical valued cohomological index, that is, the dimension of K-vector space obtained by the quotient between the ring H*(BG;K) and the ideal \'Ind POT. G\' (X,K). The main objective of this work is to present a detailed study of this index and use such index on the study of results on degree of equivariant maps proved by Hara in his paper The degree of equivariant maps\"[24] (AU)
