Morse-Smale systems without heteroclinic submanifolds on codimension one separatrices
Abstract
We study a topological structure of a closed -manifold () which admits a Morse-Smale diffeomorphism such that codimension one separatrices of saddles periodic points have no heteroclinic intersections different from heteroclinic points. Also we consider gradient like flow on such that codimension one separatices of saddle singularities have no intersection at all. We show that is either an -sphere , or the connected sum of a finite number of copies of and a finite number of special manifolds admitting polar Morse-Smale systems. Moreover, if some contains a single saddle, then is projective-like (in particular, , and is a simply-connected and orientable manifold). Given input dynamical data, one constructs a supporting manifold . We give a formula relating the number of sinks, sources and saddle periodic points to the connected sum for . As a consequence, we obtain conditions for the existence of heteroclinic intersections for Morse-Smale diffeomorphisms and a periodic trajectory for Morse-Smale flows.
