摘要

A. Floer invented what is now called Floer theory in order to prove Arnold’s conjecture for fixed points of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms. A symplectic diffeomorphism may not have fixed points, in general. There is a variant of Floer’s construction, i.e., Floer–Novikov theory, which we studied in previous works. Using Floer–Novikov homology associated with a certain covering space, we show a new existence result for a 1-periodic orbit of a 1-periodic family of symplectic vector fields on certain product symplectic manifolds with the prescribed Conley–Zehnder index, although Floer–Novikov homology vanishes in that degree.
