RT Journal Article T1 About the homological discrete Conley index of isolated invariant acyclic continua A1 Hernández Corbato, Luis A1 Le Calvez, Patrice A1 Romero Ruiz del Portal, Francisco AB This article includes an almost self-contained exposition on the discrete Conley index and its duality. We work with a locally defined homeomorphism f in R-d and an acyclic continuum X, such as a cellular set or a fixed point, invariant under f and isolated. We prove that the trace of the first discrete homological Conley index of f and X is greater than or equal to -1 and describe its periodical behavior. If equality holds then the traces of the higher homological indices are 0. In the case of orientation-reversing homeomorphisms of R-3, we obtain a characterization of the fixed point index sequence {i(f(n) (,) p}n >= 1 for a fixed point p which is isolated as an invariant set. In particular, we obtain that i(f , p) <= 1. As a corollary, we prove that there are no minimal orientation-reversing homeomorphisms in R-3.
