Abstract
In 1995 Heath, Keppelmann and Wong studied a Nielsen type number NF(f,p) for a fibre preserving map f of fibration p. This number is a lower bound for the least number of fixed points within the fibre homotopy class of f. In this paper we generalize these ideas from fixed point theory to periodic point theory, and define two Nielsen type numbers NPnF(f,p) and NΦnF(f,p) for periodic points of a fibre preserving map. These numbers, which can be thought of as the dual of periodic Nielsen type numbers for a relative map due to Heath, Schirmer and You, are bigger than the ordinary Nielsen type numbers. The definition of NPnF(f,p) and NΦnF(f,p) is reminiscent of the naive type addition formulae for periodic points of fibre preserving maps due to Heath and Keppelmann. Some calculations and examples are given.
