  • Published:
Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

We study the homotopy invariants of free cochain and Hilbert complexes. These L 2-invariants are applied to the calculation of exact values of minimum numbers of closed orbits of some indices of nonsingular Morse-Smale flows on manifolds of large dimensions.
