Abstract

The main result of this paper states that if \(F: T \times I \rightarrow T\) is a homotopy on 2-dimensional torus and \(\pi _{1}(T,x_{0}) = <u,v|[u,v]=1>\), then the one-parameter Lefschetz class L(F) of F is given by

$$\begin{aligned} L(F) = \pm N(F)\alpha , \end{aligned}$$

where N(F) is the one-parameter Nielsen number of F,  and \(\alpha = [u] \in H_{1}(\pi _{1}(T),\mathbb {Z})\).
