Abstract
|
We prove that there exists a compact two-dimensional polyhedron with the fixed
point property and even Euler characteristic. This answers a question posed by R H
Bing in 1969. We also settle a second question by Bing regarding the homotopy
invariance of the fixed point property in low dimensions.
