Abstract:

Leray’s notion of convexoid space is localized and used to show that if $f:M \to M$ is a relatively compact map on a locally convex manifold M, and f has no fixed points then its Lefschetz trace is zero. A similar theorem holds for certain adjunction spaces $Y{ \cup _g}Z$ where Y is Q-simplicial and Z is locally convexoid. A number of other properties of locally convexoid spaces are derived; for example, any neighborhood retract of a locally convexoid space is locally convexoid.
