Computation of the Nielsen fixed point number for 2-valued non-split maps on the Klein bottle
Abstract
In this paper we study 2-valued non-split maps, focusing on the Klein bottle. We establish a connection between a 2-valued non-split map and a pair of classes of maps , where is a free involution on , and the class of the lift factor does not satisfy the Borsuk-Ulam Property in respect to . We also exhibit a method to compute the Nielsen fixed point number of a 2-valued non-split map on a closed connected manifold in terms of the Nielsen coincidence number between a lift factor and a covering space map, generalizing the formula from only orientable manifolds to also non-orientable manifolds. Finally we display a formula for the Nielsen fixed point number of 2-valued non-split maps on the Klein bottle in terms of two braids of the Klein bottle.
