Let f be a smooth self-map of m-dimensional, m ≥ 4, smooth closed connected and simply-connected manifold, r a fixed natural number. For the class of maps with periodic sequence of Lefschetz numbers of iterations the authors introduced in [Graff G., Kaczkowska A., Reducing the number of periodic points in smooth homotopy class of self-maps of simply-connected manifolds with periodic sequence of Lefschetz numbers, Ann. Polon. Math. (in press)] the topological invariant J[f] which is equal to the minimal number of periodic points with the periods less or equal to r in the smooth homotopy class of f. In this paper the invariant J[f] is computed for self-maps of 4-manifold M with dimH 2(M; ℚ) ≤ 4 and estimated for other types of manifolds. We also use J[f] to compare minimization of the number of periodic points in smooth and in continuous categories.

Let $f,g:M_1 → M_2$ be maps where $M_1$ and $M_2$ are connected triangulable oriented n-manifolds so that the set of coincidences $C_{f,g}= {x ∈ M_1 | f(x)=g(x)}$ is compact in $M_1$. We define a Nielsen equivalence relation on $C_{f,g}$ and assign the coincidence index to each Nielsen coincidence class. In this note, we show that, for n ≥ 3, if $M_2= \widetilde M_2/K$ where $\widetilde M_2$ is a connected simply connected topological group and K is a discrete subgroup then all the Nielsen coincidence classes of f and g have the same coincidence index. In particular, when $M_1$ and $M_2$ are compact, f and g are deformable to be coincidence free if the Lefschetz coincidence number L(f,g) vanishes.

We construct an epsilon coincidence theory which generalizes, in some aspect, the epsilon fixed point theory proposed by Robert Brown in 2006. Given two maps f, g: X → Y from a well-behaved topological space into a metric space, we define µ ∈(f, g) to be the minimum number of coincidence points of any maps f 1 and g 1 such that f 1 is ∈ 1-homotopic to f, g 1 is ∈ 2-homotopic to g and ∈ 1 + ∈ 2 < ∈. We prove that if Y is a closed Riemannian manifold, then it is possible to attain µ ∈(f, g) moving only one rather than both of the maps. In particular, if X = Y is a closed Riemannian manifold and idY is its identity map, then µ ∈(f, idY) is equal to the ∈-minimum fixed point number of f defined by Brown. If X and Y are orientable closed Riemannian manifolds of the same dimension, we define an ∈-Nielsen coincidence number N ∈(f, g) as a lower bound for µ ∈(f, g). Our constructions and main results lead to an epsilon root theory and we prove a Minimum Theorem in this special approach.
