| contents | Klein and Williams developed an obstruction theory for the homotopical equivariant fixed point problem, which asks whether an equivariant map can be deformed, through an equivariant homotopy, into another map with no fixed points \cite[Theorem H]{KW2}. An alternative approach to this problem was given by Fadell and Wong \cite{FW88} using a collection of Nielsen numbers. It remained an open question, stated as a conjecture in \cite{KW2}, whether these Nielsen numbers could be computed from the Klein-Williams invariant. We resolve this conjecture by providing an explicit decomposition of the Klein-Williams invariant under the tom Dieck splitting. Furthermore, we apply these results to the periodic point problem. |
