The fixed point theory for
mappings of compact attraction type is used to obtain some new asymptotic fixed
point theorems. These investigations have been motivated by the properties of
ejective and attractive fixed points. SpeciaI emphasis is given to those situations
where the fixed points are of zero index. The generality of the approach admits
the useful formula ind(X,f,F) = Λ(f,X) − Λ(f,X∖F) which allows the
computation of the index ofF ⊂Fix(f : X → X) in terms of Lefschetz
numbers.
