Abstract: The Lefschetz fixed point theorem provides a powerful obstruction to the existence of minimal homeomorphisms on well-behaved spaces such as finite CW-complexes. We show that these obstructions do not hold for more general spaces. More precisely, minimal homeomorphisms are constructed on space with prescribed $K$-theory or cohomology. We also allow for some control of the map on $K$-theory and cohomology induced from these minimal homeomorphisms. This allows for the construction of many minimal homeomorphisms that are not homotopic to the identity. Applications to $C^{\ast }$-algebras will be discussed in another paper.

Review text

The paper is devoted to the problem of existence of minimal homeomorphism of on well-behaved spaces such as the compact connected metric spaces with any prescribed finitely generated \(K\)-theory or cohomology, or finite CW-complexes. A homeomorphism \(\varphi\) on a compact connected metric space \(X\) (with prescribed finitely generated generalized cohomologies) is minimal if there is no non-trivial invariant closed subspace \(F, \varphi(F) = F\). There are many obstructions to the existence of a minimal homeomorphism on well-behaved spaces. The main existence result is stated that there are such finite CW-complex or smooth manifold with free \(\mathbf S^1\)-action spaces when the generalized cohomology groups are finitely generated (Theorems 3.2, 3.1 and 4.1).
