Abstract

We consider a class G(Sn)G(S^n) of orientation preserving Morse-Smale diffeomorphisms of the sphere SnS^{n} of dimension n>3n>3 in assumption that invariant manifolds of different saddle periodic points have no intersection. We put in a correspondence for every diffeomorphism fG(Sn)f\in G(S^n) a colored graph Γf\Gamma_f enriched by an automorphism PfP_f. Then we define the notion of isomorphism between two colored graphs and prove that two diffeomorphisms f,fG(Sn)f, f'\in G(S^n) are topologically conjugated iff the graphs Γf\Gamma_f, Γf\Gamma_f' are isomorphic. Moreover we establish the existence of a linear-time algorithm for distinguishing two colored graphs of diffeomorphisms from the class G(Sn)G(S^n).
