Leray functor and orbital Conley index for non-invariant sets
An orbital Conley index for non-invariant compact sets of discrete-time dynamical systems is introduced. The construction of this new index uses an algebraic reduction process inspired from Leray. Applications to detection of periodic orbits and chaos are presented.
