where ''L''(''f<sup>n</sup>'') is the [[Lefschetz number]] of the ''n''th [[iterated function|iterate]] of ''f''. This zeta-function is of note in topological periodic point theory because it is a single invariant containing information about all iterates of ''f''.
 
==Examples==
The identity map on ''X'' has Lefschetz zeta function
 
:<math> \frac{1}{(1-t)^{\chi(X)}},</math>
 
where <math>\chi(X)</math> is the [[Euler characteristic]] of ''X'', i.e., the Lefschetz number of the identity map.
 
For a less trivial example, let ''X'' = '''S'''<sup>1</sup> (the [[unit circle]]), and let ''f'' be reflection in the ''x''-axis: or ''f''(θ) = −θ. Then ''f'' has Lefschetz number 2, and ''f''<sup>2</sup> is the identity map, which has Lefschetz number 0. All odd iterates have Lefschetz number 2, all even iterates have Lefschetz number 0. Therefore the zeta function of ''f'' is
 
:<math>\begin{align}
\zeta_f(t) & = \exp \left ( \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{2t^{2n+1}}{2n+1} \right ) \\
&=\exp \left ( \left \{2\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{t^n}{n}\right \} -\left \{2 \sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{t^{2n}}{2n}\right \} \right ) \\
&=\exp \left(-2\log(1-t)+\log(1-t^2)\right)\\
&=\frac{1-t^2}{(1-t)^2} \\
&=\frac{1+t}{1-t}
\end{align}</math>
 
== Formula ==
If ''f'' is a continuous map on a compact manifold ''X'' of dimension ''n'' (or more generally any compact polyhedron), the zeta function is given by the formula
 
:<math>\zeta_f(t)=\prod_{i=0}^{n}\det(1-t f_\ast|H_i(X,\mathbf{Q}))^{(-1)^{i+1}}.</math>
 
Thus it is a rational function. The polynomials occurring in the numerator and denominator are essentially the characteristic polynomials of the map induced by ''f'' on the various homology spaces.
 
==Connections ==
This generating function is essentially an [[algebra]]ic form of the [[Artin–Mazur zeta function|Artin–Mazur zeta-function]], which gives [[geometry|geometric]] information about the fixed and periodic points of ''f''.

Golda is what's created on my beginning certificate even though it is not the name on my beginning certification. What me and my family adore is bungee jumping but I've been using on new issues lately. Her family life in Ohio. Since he was eighteen he's been working as an info officer but he ideas on changing it.
