The Reidemeister orbit set plays a crucial role in the Nielsen type theory of periodic orbits, much as the Reidemeister set does in Nielsen fixed point theory. In this paper, extending Cardona and Wong's work on relative Reidemeister numbers, we show that the Reidemeister orbit numbers can be used to calculate the relative essential orbit numbers. We also apply the relative Reidemeister orbit number to study periodic orbits of fibre preserving maps.

In this paper we study the generalized Reidemeister number $R({\varphi},{\psi})$ for a self-map $({\varphi},{\psi}):(X,G){\rightarrow}(X,G)$ of a transformation group (X, G), as an extension of the Reidemeister number $R(f)$ for a self-map $f:X{\rightarrow}X$ of a topological space X.

Let X be a connected compact polyhedron and $f : X \to X$ a selfmap of X. The Reidemeister number of f is denoted by R(f).

In order to compute the Nielsen number N(f) of a self-map $f:X{\rightarrow}X$, some Reidemeister classes in the fundamental group ${\pi}_1(X)$ need to be distinguished. D. Ferrario has some algebraic results which allow distinguishing Reidemeister classes. In this paper we generalize these results to the Reidemeister sets of iterates.

In this paper we study the Reidemeister number $R(f_G)$ for a self-map $f_G : (X, G) \to (X, G)$ of the transformation group (X,G), as an extenstion of the Reidemeister number R(f) for a self-map $f : X \to X$ of a topological space X.

Two virtual knot diagrams are said to be equivalent, if there is a sequence S of Reidemeister moves and virtual moves relating them. The difference of writhes of the two virtual knot diagrams gives a lower bound for the number of the first Reidemeister moves in S. In previous work, we introduced a polynomial q_K(t) for a virtual knot diagram K which gave a lower bound for the number of the third Reidemeister moves in the sequence S. In this paper we define a new polynomial from a coloring of a virtual knot diagram. Using this polynomial, we give a lower bound for the number of the second Reidemeister moves in S. The polynomial also suggests the design of the sequence S.

Let X,Y be connected, locally connected, semilocally simply connected and $f,g : X \to Y$ be a pair of maps. We find an upper bound of the Reidemeister number R(f,g) by using the regular coverig spaces.

Let (X, G) be a transformation group and ${\sigma}(X,x_0,G)$ the fundamental group of (X, G). In this paper, we prove that the Reidemeister number $R(f_G)$ for an endomorphism $f_G:(X,G){\rightarrow}(X,G)$ is a homotopy invariant. In particular, when any self-map $f:X{\rightarrow}X$ is homotopic to the identity map, we give some calculation of the lower bound of $R(f_G)$. Finally, we discuss commutativity and product formula for the Reidemeister number $R(f_G)$.

For a G-map ${\phi}:X{\rightarrow}X$, we define and characterize the Reidemeister number $R_G({\phi})$ of ${\phi}$. Also, we prove that $R_G({\phi})$ is a G-homotopy invariance and we obtain a lower bound of $R_G({\phi})$.
